The buckling coefficient for thin flat plate free along one longitudinal edge is given by(a) k = 0.425 + (b/a)(b) k = 0.425 + (b/a)^2(c) k = 0.425 + (a/b)^2(d) k = 0.425 – (b/a)^2This question was addressed to me in a job interview.The above asked question is from Local Buckling of Plates in division Plastic and Local Buckling Behaviour of Steel of Design of Steel Structures

Answer»

Right option is (b) k = 0.425 + (b/a)^2

The BEST EXPLANATION: For a thin plate simply supported along both TRANSVERSE edged and one longitudinal edge and free along the other longitudinal edge, the BUCKLING coefficient can be approximated by k = 0.425 + (b/a)^2.
