MAXIMUM LOAD PREDICTION FOR SANDWICH PLATES

Abstract

An investigation of the postbuckling behavior of sandwich plates compressed beyond the general instability load into the plastic range has been undertaken. The purpose of the present investigation is to assess the effects of transverse shear deformations on the maximum strength of sandwich plates when the primary mode of initial buckling is that of general instability.
