Abstract

Abstract Postbuckling analysis of slender web loaded in compression is presented. The non-linear FEM equations [14] are derived from the variational principle of minimum of total potential energy [13]. To obtain the non-linear equilibrium paths, Newton-Raphson iteration algorithm [11], [12] is used. Peculiarities of the effect of the initial imperfections [7], [8] on load-deflection paths are investigated with respect to aspect ratio of the web. Special attention is focused on the postbuckling mode of the web.
