The critical stress of infinite plate having width b and thickness t loaded by compressive forces acting on simply supported sides is given by(a) (kπ^2E)/ [12(1-μ^2)(b/t)].(b) (kπ^2E)/ [12(1-μ^2)(b/t)^2].(c) (kπ^2E)/ [12(1+μ^2)(b/t)].(d) (kπ^2E)/ [12(1+μ^2)(b/t)^2].I had been asked this question in an interview.This question is from Local Buckling of Plates topic in portion Plastic and Local Buckling Behaviour of Steel of Design of Steel Structures |

Answer» CORRECT answer is (b) (kπ^2E)/ [12(1-μ^2)(b/t)^2]. To explain: The critical stress of infinite plate having width b and THICKNESS t loaded by compressive forces acting on SIMPLY supported sides is given by fcr = (kπ^2E)/ [12(1-μ^2)(b/t)^2], where μ is Poisson’s ratio of material, b/t is width-to-thickness ratio of plate, k is buckling coefficient and E is Young’s modulus of rigidity of material. The value of coefficient k depends on constraints along non-loaded EDGES of plate. |
