Abstract

The stability of clamped stepped and stiffened rectangular plate subjected to in-plane forces is examined. The plate is divided into 900 rectangular meshes and the partial derivatives are approximated using central difference formula. Altogether 841 equations of equilibrium and 248 equations representing boundary conditions are formed, finally leading to the solution of eigenvalue problem. The buckling coefficients are calculated for various types of stepped plates and the results are presented in tables for ready use by designers. The results are compared with the published results and they are in close agreement.
