Cylindrical shells under uniaxial compression and spherical shells under equi-biaxial compression display the most extreme buckling sensitivity to imperfections. In engineering practice, the reduction of load carrying capacity due to imperfections is usually addressed by use of a knockdown factor to lower the critical buckling stress estimated or computed without accounting for imperfections. F...

This paper investigates the buckling of finite isotropic rectangular plates with circular cutout under uniaxial and biaxial loading. The complex potential method is used to calculate the pre-buckling stress distribution around the cutout in the plate with finite dimensions. To satisfy the in-plane boundary conditions, the generalized complex-potential functions are introduced and a new method b...

Abstract   In this paper elastoplastic buckling of rectangular plates with different boundary conditions are investigated. Differential governing equations of plate are obtained on the basis of general loading and according to deformation theory (DT) of plasticity. Various loading conditions contain uniaxial, biaxial and shear are studied. The employed material is AL7075T6 which is usually used...

We discuss the reorientation of a cylindrically symmetric probe in a biaxial orthorombic medium, such as a biaxial nematic. We write down and solve for the first time the rotational diffusion equation for a rod-like or disc-like uniaxial probe reorienting in a medium of biaxial symmetry. We calculate first and second rank correlation functions both in the uniaxial and biaxial phase, giving the ...

In this article, the nonlocal biaxial buckling load and bending analysis of polymeric piezoelectric nanoplate reinforced by carbon nanotube (CNT) considering the surface stress effect is presented. This plate is subjected to electro-magneto-mechanical loadings. Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka approach is used for defining the piezoelectric nanoplate material properties. Navier’s type solution is employed t...

We present a mean field theory to describe biaxial nematic phases of side-chain liquid crystalline polymers, in which rigid side-chains (mesogens) and rigid-backbone chains favor mutually perpendicular orientations. Taking into account both excluded volume and attractive interactions between rigid rods, novel biaxial nematic phases are theoretically predicted. We calculate uniaxial and biaxial ...
