A numerical investigation into the effects of parabolic curvature on the buckling strength and behaviour of stiffened plates under in-plane compression
The main targets of this research are mainly divided in to two parts: (1) identifying the effects of parabolic curvature on the buckling strength and behaviour of stiffened plates under in-plane compression, (2) generating practical graphs for extracting eigenvalue buckling stress of parabolic curved stiffened plate to dimensionless parameters. A parametric model for study of the problem is created. The model includes different parameters related to plate, stiffeners and also parabolic curvature. Three distinct sensitivity cases are assumed. In each sensitivity case, many different models are analysed and their buckling strengths are obtained using a finite element commercial program (ANSYS). Buckling strength and behaviour of all models with different ratios of parabolic curvature are compared to each other.
