5Energy storage, slow loadingCylindrical concrete + PVC pipe (C-1)
6Energy storage, slow loadingCylindrical concrete + PVC pipe + iron hoop (C-2)
7Energy storage, slow loadingCylindrical concrete + PVC pipe + iron hoop + rubber (C-3)

Note: The loading speed of slow loading is about 0.35 MPa·s−1 according to the “Standard for test method of mechanical properties on ordinary concrete” in China. The fast loading speed is 5 times that of slow loading.
