SummaryThis paper reports on an investigation of the effect of local elastic buckling of stiffener outstands on the overall behaviour of stiffened plates. A simplified mathematical model has been developed, based on the post-buckling analysis of the stiffener, and gives a simple expression which indicates that, for the plate geometry investigated, the maximum load carried varies asymptotically between the local critical load of the stiffener and a reduced Euler load. Also, there is a marked imperfection sensitivity arising from the interaction of the local and overall buckling modes. Experiments were carried out to confirm the analytical prediction for the elastic buckling behaviour of the stiffened plates. The models were constructed of Araldite, to allow large deformation within the elastic strain range. Experimental results showed very good agreement with the theory.

Stiffened plate buckles in different modes, including web/flange buckling, torsional buckling, plate buckling, and interactions of them. Generally, interactions of different buckling modes in stiffened plates are ignored and elastic buckling analysis of each mode is treated separately. In some design codes, to cope with interactions of different buckling modes, the influence of adjacent elements are considered as rotational springs. The main aim of this study is to compare literature- and rule-based expressions to assess the elastic buckling strength of T-bar stiffened plates and to identify the applicability of selected expressions for certain conditions. Different buckling modes and their interactions are investigated, and critical Euler stresses are evaluated. Upon comparison with given expressions and the finite element method, it is found that some of the proposed expressions are not applicable in certain conditions.
