Abstract

Laminated composite plates are inevitable parts of structure due to its superior properties than that of conventional material. Many times, these structural elements are subjected to the partial loadings during various applications which arises buckling in the elements. This necessitates proper analysis of these types of structural member for better safety and stability. In the present paper buckling analysis of laminated composite stiffened plate under in-plane localized edge loading is presented. Buckling load for various cases of partial edge loading are investigated for different fiber orientations and loading extent. Finite element method-based MATLAB program is developed for the present analysis. Validation study is done, which shows well agreement with the results already published.
