Handbook of Thin Plate Buckling and Post Buckling
Synopsis Detailed and clearly written, this text contains a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the buckling and postbuckling behaviour of perfect and imperfect thin plates. The text studies in detail the factors that influence critical buckling loads, initial mode shapes and post buckling behaviour for thin plates. Topics discussed include: analysis of rectangular, circular and annular plates; hygrothermal buckling; viscoelastic and plastic buckiling; and buckling of various thickness plates.
