Summary

The buckling and postbuckling behavior of simply supported orthotropic composite rectangular plates in uniaxial compression and lateral pressure is studied by a deflection-type perturbation technique applied to the generalized Karman equations. Comparisons of the predictions by the approach with experiments and other analytical results are made and show that agreement between the present theory and experiments is reasonably better.

Übersicht

Das Beul-und Nachbeulverhalten orthotroper Verbund-Rechteckplatten unter Querbelastung und Axialdruck wird mit der Methode der Störungsrechnung die auf die generalisierten von Karmanschen Gleichungen angewandt wird, untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der vorliegenden Arbeit werden mit Versuchsergebnissen und anderen analytischen Lösungen verglichen, wodurch gezeigt wird, daß unter Verwendung der genannten Methode eine bessere Übereinstimmung mit den experimentellen Ergebnissen erzielt wird.
