Composite Plate Buckling Study

Linear eigenvalue and non-linear post-buckling analyses of stiffened composite panels across lay-ups and boundary conditions, used to calibrate hand-calc panel-buckling workbooks.

  • Composites
  • Buckling
  • Stiffened Panels

Key work

  • Eigenvalue and arc-length non-linear runs.
  • Lay-up and stiffener-pitch sweep.
  • Imperfection-sensitivity check.
  • Correlation with panel-buckling data.
