This paper presents buckling studies made on skew plates using finite element. The effects of the skew angle, aspect ratio, length-to-thickness-ratio, fibre orientation angle, and numbers of layers in the laminate and laminate sequence on the critical buckling load factor (Kcr) of antisymmetric composite laminates have also been presented. The critical buckling load factor (Kcr) is found to inc...

In this paper, an analytical model is developed to determine the torsional-flexural buckling load of a channel column braced by unevenly distributed batten plates. Solutions of the critical buckling loads were derived for three boundary cases using the energy method in which the rotating angle between the adjacent battens was presented in the form of a piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation (PCH...

In this paper, the axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric buckling of finite elastic cylindrical shell, which is impacted on the end by axial step loads, is discussed with the aid of the stress wave propagating and reflecting. By solving the disturbed equations, the bifurcation condition of the dynamic buckling, critical buckling load and buckling mode are obtained. The results show that when the th...

A distributed Brillouin fiber sensor has been employed to detect localized pipe-wall buckling in an energy pipe by measuring the longitudinal and hoop strain distributions along the outer surface of the pipe for the first time. The locations of the localized pipe-wall buckling are found and distinguished using their corresponding strain-load data. The formation of the buckling process for the c...

It is well known that Korn's inequality plays a central role in the theory of linear elasticity. In their recent work Grabovsky and Truskinovsky (2007) proved a connection between the Korn inequalities and buckling problems coming from nonlinear elasticity. It has been shown that when the general buckling theory by Grabovsky and Truskinovsky is applicable, then Korn's inequality gives a lower b...

existence of cracks in industrial structures is one of the important causes of their failure, especially when they are subjected to important axial compressive forces that might lead to buckling. therefore, it must be considered in stress analysis and designing and loading of such structures. in this paper, the buckling and post-buckling behaviors of stainless-steel cracked plates under axial c...
