Figure 1. Anticlimber Geometry
The crush width, c, and the crush distance. A, are related by
c - Z/ZAR - A:
The anticlimber area being crushed is merely the crush width times the total thickness being crushed. Using this,along with the anti- climber yield stress,the crush force becomes
Fe * oy c tT
or substituting data
Fe -“(36.000) c (A'.273) ‘ 39,300 c.
The energy required'to deform the anticlimber any amount 5 is given by
5 EC F 10 Fe dA
Substituting the above equations into this formula and carrying Out the integration
