Concrete-filled bimetallic tubes (CFBT) could be recognized as a type of steel-concrete composite members, and have the potential to be applied in engineering structures. A three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) model is established to further study the axial compressive behaviour of circular CFBT stub columns in this paper. The preciseness of the FEA predictions is evaluated by comparison with experimental results collected from ten CFBT column specimens tested in a companion paper (Ye et al., 2016) [15]. Good agreement is obtained between the FEA predictions and the test results in terms of failure pattern, load versus deformation response, ultimate strength, and strain development of the two steel tube layers. In light of the FEA results, the stresses of concrete and steel, as well as the interactions and load distribution between different components of the composite section are investigated. Finally,parametric study is performed and a simplified model is proposed to be used to calculate the ultimate strength of circular CFBT stub columns.
