Abstract

For problems of non-uniform compression, stability analysis is complicated because it requires the solution for the in-plane force field as a preliminary step. It is the purpose of the present chapter to illustrate this two-step procedure with specific reference to uniaxially compressed rectangular plates.

    Thus, in the absence of body forces, the governing equation in terms of is the same for both plane stress and plane strain problems; the implications of this may be found in any standard book on the theory of elasticity.
