| Abstract: | This paper presents the buckling analysis of stiffened plates, using both conventional and super finite element methods. Mindlin plate and Timoshenko beam theories are utilized so as to formulate the plate and stiffeners, respectively. The arbitrary oriented stiffeners can be positioned anywhere within the plate element and are not limited to be placed on nodal lines. Therefore, any configuration of plate and stiffeners can be modeled. Furthermore, extensive boundary conditions as well as general in-plane loading conditions can be considered using the proposed method. As the applied in-plane loads are not uniform, the buckling load is evaluated in two steps. First, the elasticity problem is solved to determine the stress distribution in prebuckling stage. Applying the principle of minimum potential energy, based on derived stress distribution, yields to the buckling equation of stiffened plates. Numerical examples are proposed to study the accuracy and efficiency of the developed super elements. Effects of various combinations of biaxial loads along with different boundary conditions on buckling characteristics of stiffened panels are also investigated. |
