dc.description.abstract |
The objective of this study was to develop new solutions for linear elastic buckling
coefficients of rectangular flat plates with various support conditions. Critical buckling
coefficients were found for rectangular flat plates subjected to compression and bending
on two opposite edges with one free unloaded edge using the finite element method.
Plates with different aspect ratios (0.5,0.75, 1, 1.5,2,2.4,2.8, 3.2, 3.6,4) were analyzed.
Currently, no solutions are available in the literature for plates subjected to compression
and bending with a free unloaded edge.
Thin-walled structures have the characteristic of susceptibility of failure by instability or
buckling. It is important to the design engineer that accurate methods are available to
determine the critical buckling strength. The method developed in this work was verified
on problems where closed form mathematical solutions exist.
An engineer will be able to use the solutions developed in this work in the design of
components that are susceptible to instability failures. Another benefit of this work is to
demonstrate to practicing engineers that reliable instability results can be obtained by
using standard finite element analysis (FEA) methods. This work considers a small
subset of instability problems but the FEA method utilized herein can be effectively used
to model a large class of practical instability problems. |
