Abstract

In this paper a numerical model for investigating the moment-rotation response of corrugated plates is presented. In particular, the effect of the geometry of the plate on the bending response is considered. Results are compared with a simplified theoretical model recently appeared in the literature. Combining geometrical effects and prestress, corrugated plates can become multistable forming the basis of new morphing structures.
