| Description | A parametric study of the buckling behavior of infinitely long symmetrically laminated anisotropic plates subjected to combined loads is presented. The study focuses on the interaction of a stable subcritical secondary loading state of constant magnitude and a primary destabilizing load that is increased in magnitude until buckling occurs. The loads considered are uniform axial compression, pure inplane bending, transverse tension and compression, and shear. Results obtained using a special purpose plates with a significant potential for reducing structural nondimensional analysis that is well suited for parametric studies are presented for clamped and simply supported plates. In particular, results are presented for a (+/- 45)(sub s) graphite-epoxy laminate, and generic buckling design charts are presented for a wide range of non-dimensional parameters that are applicable to a broad class of laminate constructions. These results show the effects of flexural orthotropy and flexural anisotropy on plates subjected to various combined loading conditions. An important finding of the present study is that the effect of flexural anisotropy herein as flexural anisotropy on the buckling resistance of a plate can be increased significantly for certain types of combined loads. |
