Handbook of Thin Plate Buckling and Postbuckling

This handbook contains a comprehensive treatment of buckling and postbuckling behavior of perfect and imperfect thin plates. It includes an impressive collection of topics that have never before been printed. Topics discussed in the text include hygrothermal/thermal buckling, viscoelastic and plastic buckling, and buckling of variable thickness plates.

Summary

Contains a comprehensive treatment of the buckling and postbuckling behavior of perfect and imperfect thin plates. This title details the factors that influence critical buckling loads, initial mode shapes, and postbuckling behavior for thin plates. It covers such topics as hygrothermal buckling and buckling of various thickness plates.
