Design Criteria for Buckling and Vibration of Imperfect Stiffened Shells

Abstract

Recent advances in the methods of prediction of buckling loads of stiffened shells and their applicability to design are reviewed. The influence of boundary conditions, imperfections, and inelastic effects are studied and correlated with test. Realistic design criteria are involved. Methods for vibration analysis of loaded stiffened shells are evaluated by correlation with test results and consideration of design application. The influence of boundary conditions and imperfections are studied and correlated with their influence on instability. The use of vibration testing as a non-destructive method for checking of actual boundary conditions, and for prediction of buckling loads of stiffened shells is discussed and correlated to tests.
