The present work is devoted to the analysis of a buckling behavior of a cylindrical composite panel. The considered structure is subjected to the uniform axial compression. The wall of the panel consists of the 8 layers. In addition, in the geometrical center of the structure there is a square delamination located between the fourth and the fifth layer. The main goal is to determine the buckling and post - buckling behavior as well as the influence of the delamination on the stability of the structure. The nonlinear numerical analysis is carried out with aid of the FEM method. The experimental verification is also performed. The results obtained from numerical and experimental analysis show very similar behavior of the structure.

Abstract The buckled wave length and the critical in-plane bending moment of laminated long composite strips of cord-reinforced rubber sheets on an elastic foundation is analyzed by Galerkin's method, with consideration of interlaminar shear deformation. An approximate formula for the wave length is given in terms of cord angle, elastic moduli of the constituent rubber and steel cord, and several structural dimensions. The calculated wave length for a 165SR13 automobile tire with steel breakers (belts) was very close to experimental results. An additional study was then conducted on the post-buckling behavior of a laminated biased composite beam on an elastic foundation. This beam is subjected to axial compression. The calculated relationship between the buckled wave rise and the compressive membrane force also agreed well with experimental results.

This paper presents a simplified method to analyze the buckling of thin structures like those of Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactors (LMFBR). The method is very similar to those used for the buckling of beams and columns with initial geometric imperfections, buckling in the plastic region. Special attention is paid to the strain hardening of material involved and to possible unstable post-buckling behavior. The analytical method uses elastic calculations and diagrams that account for various initial geometric defects. An application of the method is given. A comparison is made with an experimental investigation concerning a representative LMFBR component.

ABSTRACTUsing conventional virtual work method to derive geometric stiffness of a thin-walled beam element, researchers usually have to deal with nonlinear strains with high order terms and the induced moments caused by cross sectional stress results under rotations. To simplify the laborious procedure, this study decomposes an I-beam element into three narrow beam components in conjunction with geometrical hypothesis of rigid cross section. Then let us adopt Yanget al.'s simplified geometric stiffness matrix [kg]12×12of a rigid beam element as the basis of geometric stiffness of a narrow beam element. Finally, we can use rigid beam assemblage and stiffness transformation procedure to derivate the geometric stiffness matrix [kg]14×14of an I-beam element, in which two nodal warping deformations are included. From the derived [kg]14×14matrix, it can take into account the nature of various rotational moments, such as semi-tangential (ST) property for St. Venant torque and quasi-tangential (QT) property for both bending moment and warping torque. The applicability of the proposed [kg]14×14matrix to buckling problem and geometric nonlinear analysis of loaded I-shaped beam structures will be verified and compared with the results presented in existing literatures. Moreover, the post-buckling behavior of a centrally-load web-tapered I-beam with warping restraints will be investigated as well.
