Abstract

Dynamic buckling of stiffened panels under axial compression loading having the form of finite duration pulse was analyzed by finite element modeling. Welding induced defects modifying the skin plate curvature were incorporated. Material degradation in the heat-affected zone was also taken into account. The Budiansky and Roth criterion was employed to predict the collapse load. Various pulse shapes were investigated. The obtained results have shown that the pulse period and profile have severe effects on the buckling strength. For the considered boundary conditions and load pulses up to 56% reduction of the strength was observed in comparison with static buckling.
