Critical Buckling Load

AbstractA mathematical model for nonlocal vibration and buckling of embedded two-dimensional (2D) decagonal quasicrystal (QC) layered nanoplates is proposed. The Pasternak-type foundation is used to simulate the interaction between the nanoplates and the elastic medium. The exact solutions of the nonlocal vibration frequency and buckling critical load of the 2D decagonal QC layered nanoplates are obtained by solving the eigensystem and using the propagator matrix method. The present three-dimensional (3D) exact solution can predict correctly the nature frequencies and critical loads of the nanoplates as compared with previous thin-plate and medium-thick-plate theories. Numerical examples are provided to display the effects of the quasiperiodic direction, length-to-width ratio, thickness of the nanoplates, nonlocal parameter, stacking sequence, and medium elasticity on the vibration frequency and critical buckling load of the 2D decagonal QC nanoplates. The results show that the effects of the quasiperiodic direction on the vibration frequency and critical buckling load depend on the length-to-width ratio of the nanoplates. The thickness of the nanoplate and the elasticity of the surrounding medium can be adjusted for optimal frequency and critical buckling load of the nanoplate. This feature is useful since the frequency and critical buckling load of the 2D decagonal QCs as coating materials of plate structures can now be tuned as one desire.

In this study, a buckling analysis is performed on rectangular composite plates with single and double circular notch using the finite element method. Laminated plates of carbon/bismaleimde (IM7/5250-4) are ordered symmetrically as follows [(θ/-θ)2]S. The buckling strength of symmetric laminated plates subjected to uniaxial compression is highlighted as a function of the fibers orientations. The results show that whatever the notch radius, the buckling load is almost stable. Increasing the degree of anisotropy significantly improves critical buckling load.

Aluminium plates containing a single hole or multiple holes in a row are recently becoming very popular among architects and consultant engineers in many constructional applications, due to their reduced weight, as well as facilitating ventilation and light penetration of the buildings. However, there are still uncertainties concerning their structural behaviour, preventing them from wider utilization. In the present paper, local buckling phenomenon of perforated aluminium plates has been studied using the finite element method. For the purposes of the research work, plates with simply supported edges in the out-of-plane direction and subjected to uniaxial compression are examined. In view of perforations, circular cut-outs and the total cut-out size has been varied between 5 and 40% of the total plate area. Moreover, different perforation patterns have been investigated, from a single, central cut-out to a more refined pattern consisting of up to 25 holes equally distributed over the plate. Regarding the material characteristics, several aluminium alloys are considered and compared to steel grade A36 on plates of different slenderness. For each case the critical (Euler) buckling load and the ultimate resistance has been determined.A study into the boundary conditions of the plate showed that the restrictions at the edges parallel to the load direction have a large influence on the critical buckling load. Restraining the top or bottom edge does not significantly influence the resistance of the plate.The results showed that the ultimate resistance of aluminium plates containing multiple holes occurs at considerably larger out-of-plane displacement as that of full plates. For very large total cut-out, a plate containing a central hole has a larger resistance than a plate with equal cut-out percentage but with multiple holes. The strength and deformation in the post-critical regime, i.e. the difference between the critical buckling load and the ultimate resistance, differs significantly for different number of holes and cut-out percentage.

In this article, the buckling analysis of a double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT) subjected to a uniform internal pressure in a thermal field is investigated. The effects of the temperature change, the surrounding elastic medium based on the Winkler model, and the van der Waals forces between the inner and the outer tubes are considered using the continuum cylindrical shell model. The small-length scale effect is also included in the present formulation. The results show that there is a unique buckling mode corresponding to each critical buckling load. Moreover, it is shown that the non-local critical buckling load is lower than the local critical buckling load. It is concluded that, at low temperatures, the critical buckling load for the infinitesimal buckling of a DWCNT increases as the magnitude of temperature change increases whereas at high temperatures, the critical buckling load decreases with the increasing of the temperature.

Mechanics Of Deformable Solids

In this paper, an evaluation of the influence of atmospheric humidity on the critical buckling load of reinforced concrete columns is performed. A particular case consisting of a real, extremely slender reinforced concrete pole was taken for the study. The chosen mathematical procedure for calculating the critical load is based on the Mechanics of Deformable Solids due to variations of structure vibration frequency over time. The rheological behavior of concrete related to creep and shrinkage, which illustrates the time-dependent aspect of the problem, was also considered in the analysis following normative recommendations from the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (ABNT). In order to evaluate value changes of critical buckling loads, different time instants after loading the structure as well as different relative humidity from 0% to 100%, in 10% increments were considered. According to the selected criteria, it was possible to verify that a higher atmospheric humidity decreases the water transport from the interior out to the exterior surfaces of concrete, hence positively influencing structure stiffness. Therefore, the lowest reduction on critical buckling was 41.9% at 100% relative atmospheric humidity, versus the highest 60.7% at 0% relative humidity. A period of 7500 days after loading the structure was considered in the analysis.
