Handbook of Thin Plate Buckling and Postbuckling

By Frederick Bloom

Detailed and clearly written, this book contains a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the buckling and postbuckling behavior of perfect and imperfect thin plates. The authors study in detail the factors that influence critical buckling loads, initial mode shapes, and postbuckling behavior for thin plates. Through their analysis of rectangular, circular, and annular plates, they present valuable information, some never before been published in book form. Topics include hygrothermal buckling, viscoelastic and plastic buckling, and buckling of various thickness plates. In this important work, readers get a one-stop source of current research findings.
