Elastic and Plastic Buckling of Simply Supported Metalite Type Sandwich Plates in Compression

Abstract

A solution is presented for the problem of the compressive buckling of simply supported, flat, rectangular, Metalite type sandwich plates stressed either in the elastic range or in the plastic range. Charts for the analysis of long sandwich plates are presented for plates having face materials of' 24S-T3 aluminum alloy, 75S-T6 Alclad aluminum alloy, and stainless steel. A comparison of computed and experimental buckling stresses of square Metalite sandwich plates indicates fair agreement between theory and experiment.
