Abstract
For many years, a significant amount of research has been directed towards experimental modelling of thin-walled plates and shells, as well as towards the development of analytical and numerical methods to improve their design against buckling. This paper presents methodologies for probabilistic buckling analysis and reliability assessment of such structural components and examines the link between probabilistic and deterministic studies. In particular, the effect of manufacturing variabilities, such as initial geometric imperfections and residual stresses, on elasto-plastic buckling response is investigated through parametric reliability studies of plate panels and cylinders under axial compression.
