This book provides engineering tools for the design of shells against buckling. A simplified approach is given in a number of cases which are not addressed in current design codes.
This book provides better inputs for improvement of the buckling load predictions of stiffened cylindrical shells subjected to combined loading. It is based on the International Colloquium Buckling of shell structures, on land, in the sea and in the air, Lyon, France, 17 September 1991.
This collection of papers, written by friends and colleagues of Josef Singer, presents a comprehensive and timely review of the theoretical mechanics of thin shell-structures. Topics of great current interest such as the buckling of composite plates and shells, the plastic buckling of thin-walled structures and the optimum design of buckling sensitive curved composite panels are examined by experts, using a great diversity of approaches, whereby theoretical predictions are compared with experimental results whenever possible.Other topics reviewed include the buckling and post-buckling behaviour of imperfect shells under different external static or dynamic loads and a variety of boundary conditions. Papers dealing with the vibration and the dynamic response of thin elastic bodies are also presented.A strong emphasis is made on the practical applications aspect in the theories presented. Thus engineers, research workers and students who are involved with the design and analysis of shell structures made of different materials, and subjected to various static and dynamic loads will find this volume an invaluable source of reference.
A study is made of the effect of the flexural stiffness of the face sheets on tebuckling of elastic curved plates and cylindrical shells of sandwich construction subject, to axial compression. The study shows that when the core is very weak in shear, the flexural stiffness of the face sheets can have an important effect on the buckling load. Simple formulas are developed which give good approximations to the buckling load for most practical ranges of the parameters where the effect of face-sheet stiffness is important. Results of these formulas are compared with exact results for an infinitely long curved plate over a large range of sandwich-sheel parameters. The results are based on a linear buckling theory for sandwich shells of the Donnell type.
