Summary

The buckling of thin elastic rectangular plates due to two arrays of edge dislocations symmetrically placed with respect to the longitudinal axis of the plate is studied for two different dislocation orientations. The analysis is based on the governing equation of plate buckling. Through a standard eigenvalue analysis the buckling criterion is analytically-numerically computed and numerical results are presented pertaining to cases of practical engineering interest such as welding.
