In the paper presented the behavior of a transversely formed box-girder model subjected to pure bending is discussed, where the deck plating of the model is loaded above the buckling load. The experimental results obtained are in reasonable agreement with theoretical investigations and show the influence of fabrication initiated plate deflections on the buckling and postbuckling behavior of the deck plating clearly. A method is suggested for determining the buckling load of plates having large initial deformations.

Abstract The buckled wave length and the critical in-plane bending moment of laminated long composite strips of cord-reinforced rubber sheets on an elastic foundation is analyzed by Galerkin's method, with consideration of interlaminar shear deformation. An approximate formula for the wave length is given in terms of cord angle, elastic moduli of the constituent rubber and steel cord, and several structural dimensions. The calculated wave length for a 165SR13 automobile tire with steel breakers (belts) was very close to experimental results. An additional study was then conducted on the post-buckling behavior of a laminated biased composite beam on an elastic foundation. This beam is subjected to axial compression. The calculated relationship between the buckled wave rise and the compressive membrane force also agreed well with experimental results.

The proposed research explores Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube’s (MWCNT’s) effect on the mechanical buckling behavior of glass fiber-enhanced thermosetting composites using UTM and the load vs displacement curve is plotted. Using the inflection point method, the critical buckling load is obtained from the load vs displacement curve for beams with three different volume fractions of MWCNT. The nonlinear finite element method is used to numerically obtain the load vs deflection curve and the numerical results are compared with the experimental results, and a close match is found with the experimental results. It is observed that the nonlinearity associated with the structure can significantly reduce the critical buckling load. The critical buckling load is found to increase and reported a 27.4% increase in buckling load with 0.3 wt.% of MWCNT which could be accounted for the increase in flexural modulus of the material.

The initial post-buckling behavior of thick rings under external uniform hydrostatic pressure is investigated. In the analysis, no assumptions are placed upon the relative magnitudes of the elongations and rotations, and the ring is assumed to be elastic and extensional. The importance of including certain nonlinear terms in the initial post-buckling stability analysis and the effects of nonzero shearing strains on the buckling load and the initial post-buckling stability are examined. It is shown that the classical Kirchhoff assumptions, when employed for a ring lead to nonvanishing through thickness strains, εzz and εzθ, with the latter being proportional to the through thickness coordinate z. An approximate first order shear deformation analysis and a two-dimensional elasticity analysis (without beam-type kinematical assumptions) of the initial post-buckling behavior of thick rings are presented and the thickness effects on the buckling load and the initial post-buckling behavior are examined. The formulation for the composite ring was reduced to that of an isotropic ring and the results thus obtained were compared with published one-dimensional results in the literature. It is found from both the shear deformation and the two-dimensional analysis that the initial post-buckling behavior of the isotropic ring and the composite rings studied are stable. The influence of thickness on the degree of stability in the immediate post-buckling response is characterized.

Abstract The post-buckling behavior of an elastic fiber subjected to lateral constraints is of practical importance in a wide range of medical and engineering applications. The vast majority of existing studies have adopted the assumption that the lateral constrains are fixed in space and rigid. This assumption is often far from the reality of the physical complexity of the abovementioned systems. In this paper, we study analytically, numerically, and experimentally, the behavior of an elastic fiber that is subjected to compressive force and constrained by a flexible tube. The latter marks a point of departure from available research. Our experiments provide quantitative information related to the overall behavior of the system, like force-shortening relation and deflection of the flexible tube. That information is complemented by finite-element simulations that enable in-depth analysis of the deformation of the fiber as well as contact characteristics between the fiber and the inner wall of the flexible tube. Finally, a simple mathematical model, aimed at providing analytical insights, is presented. Overall, the theoretical, numerical, and experimental results are in very good agreement. They highlight the fact that the behavior of a compressed fiber that is constrained by a deformable tube significantly deviates from that of a fiber constrained inside a rigid cylinder. Moreover, it is shown that the overall behavior as well as the evolution of contact between the fiber and the cylinder heavily depend on the ratio between the stiffness of the fiber and the lateral stiffness of the tube.

The results of a four points bending test on a box girder are presented. The experiment is part of series of tests with similar configuration but different thickness, spacing between longitudinal stiffeners and span between frames. The present work refers to the stockiest plate box girder with a plate’s thickness of 4 mm and a span between frames of 800 mm. The experiment includes initial loading cycles allowing for residual stresses relief. It also includes a series of cycles close to collapse load allowing the analysis of linear characteristic at high levels of load. The moment curvature relationship is established for a large range of curvatures. The ultimate bending moment of the box is evaluated and compared with the first yield moment and the plastic moment allowing the evaluation of the efficiency of the structure. The post buckling behavior and collapse mode are characterized. Comparison of the experiment with a progressive collapse method is made taking into consideration the effect of residual stresses on envelop of the moment curvature curve of the structure.

Lattice structures are known for their high strength-to-weight ratio, multiple functionalities, lightweight, stiffness, and energy absorption capabilities and potential applications in aerospace, automobile, and biomedical industry. To reveal the buckling (global and local) and post-buckling behavior of different lattice morphologies, both experimental and simulation-based studies were carried out. Additionally, a variable-density lattice structure was designed and analyzed to achieve the optimal value of critical buckling load. Latticed columns were fabricated using polyamide 12 material on multi jet fusion 3D printer. The results exhibited that the buckling in lattice columns depends on the distribution of mass, second moment of inertia I, diameter and position of vertical beams, number of horizontal or inclined beams, and location and angle of the beams that support the vertical beams. The number of horizontal and inclined beams and their thickness has an inverse relation with buckling; however, this trend changes after approaching a critical point. It is revealed that vertical beams are more crucial for buckling case, when compared with horizontal or inclined beams; however, material distribution in inclined or horizontal orientation is also critical because they provide support to vertical beams to behave as a single body to bear the buckling load. The results also revealed that the critical buckling load could be increased by designing variable density cellular columns in which the beams at the outer edges of the column are thicker compared with inner beams. However, post-buckling behavior of variable density structures is brittle and local when compared with uniform density lattice structures.

Based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT), the smeared stiffeners technique and Galerkin method, the analytical expressions to determine the static critical buckling load and analyze the post-buckling load-deflection curves of FGM plates reinforced by FGM stiffeners resting on elastic foundations and subjected to in-plane compressive loads or thermal loads are established in part 1. In this part, we will use them to study the effects of temperature, stiffener, volume fraction index, geometrical parameters, elastic foundations on the buckling and post-buckling behavior of plates. In addition, the results in comparisons between the classical plate theory (CPT) and the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) also are carried out and shown that the buckling and post-buckling behavior of more thick plate should be studied by FSDT.

This paper presents the results of a numerical study of the buckling and initial post-buckling behavior of clamped shallow spherical shells under axisymmetric ring loads. This behavior is studied for a cap with fixed geometry when the location of the ring load is allowed to vary from the equivalent of a concentrated load at the apex to a location near the midpoint of the shell base radius, and for a fixed ring load location when the shell geometry is allowed to vary. It is found in both studies that a significant range of the geometric shell parameter λ exists such that buckling is accompanied by a loss in load-carrying capacity.
