Buckling of Rectangular Sandwich Plates Subjected to Edgewise Compression with Loaded Edges Simply Supported and Unloaded Edges Clamped

Résumé du livre

The compressive stress for buckling is calculated for a rectangular flat sandwich plate with loaded edges simply supported and unloaded edges rigidly clamped. in the calculations Hoff's differential equations are integrated by Legget's method to obtain lower bounds and by Galerkin's method to establish upper bounds. True values of the buckling stress are estimated as arithmetic means of these bounds and are presented in a diagram which covers the entire practical range of the geometric and mechanical quantities involved.
