a comparison of buckling analysis of the nanoplate and nanocomposite plate with central square hole embedded in winkler foundation is presented in this article. in order to enhance mechanical properties of nanoplate with central cut out, carbon nano tubes (cnts) are applied as uniform distribution (ud) through thickness direction. in order to define the shape function of plate with square cut o...

This study investigates the buckling behavior of short cylindrical shells with hemi-spherical heads subjected to hydrostatic pressure. It is assumed that the length of the cylindrical part is smaller than or equal to its diameter while its material may be dif-ferent from that of hemispherical heads. Finite element analysis was used to seek out the effect of geometric parameters such as thicknes...

this paper has focused on vibration and buckling of thin rectangular plates when at least two opposite sides are simply supported condition and subjected to axial and biaxial initially stresses. analysis is based on exact solution method, without further usage of any approximate method. first analytic techniques are used to discuss the free vibrations of plate. then, natural frequencies and cri...

The problem of a thin spherical linearly-elastic shell, perfectly bonded to an infinite linearly-elastic medium is considered. A constant axisymmetric stress field is applied at infinity in the matrix, and the displacement and stress fields in the shell and matrix are evaluated by means of harmonic potential functions. In order to examine the stability of this solution, the buckling problem of ...

Abstract Buckling and vibration study of the shape memory polymer composites (SMPC) across glass transition temperature under heterogeneous loading conditions are presented. Finite element analysis based on C° continuity equation through higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) is employed considering non linear Von Karman approach to estimate critical buckling for span from 273 373 K. Exte...

An analytical investigation is conducted to predict the post-buckling strength of laminated composite stiffened panels under compressive loads. When a stiffened composite panel buckles, the skin would deform into a sinusoidal mode shape, and hence induces additional moments and forces near the skin-stiffener interface region. These induced loads would cause the existing small edge delamination ...

We observed the formation of regular nanoscale undulations on a polystyrene film when imprinted by a soft poly(dimethylsiloxane) mold above the polymer's glass transition temperature. The shape of the wave was reminiscent of a buckling wave frequently observed for a metal film supported on an elastomeric substrate. We derived a simple theoretical model based on an anisotropic buckling of the po...

in this paper, the stability characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) under the action of axial load are investigated. to this end, a nonlocal flügge shell model is developed to accommodate the small length scale effects. the analytical rayleigh-ritz method with beam functions is applied to the variational statement derived from the flügge-type buckling equations. molecular dy...
