IMPERFECTION SENSITIVITY OF THIN PLATES LOADED IN SHEAR
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2014, Vol 59, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper deals with imperfection sensitivity analysis of longitudinally stiffened thin plates loaded in shear. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the use of optimization method for direct determination of the worst imperfection shape. New linear constraints are considered in optimization method in order to find not only the worst but also realistic imperfection shape. Further on, different solutions of arbitrary shapes that are used to estimate the worst imperfection are introduced and compared. Finally, a parametric analysis seeking the worst imperfection shape is performed and discussed.
