Abstract

Finite element method is applied to analyze the buckling performance of composite stiffened panel. Compress buckling critical loads of six types panels with T or Z-section stiffeners are calculated by FEM. The emulational calculation results show that with same cross section area, critical buckling load of panel with T-section stiffeners increases with the reduction of stiffener pitch and the increase of stiffener numbers, while the buckling load of panel with Z-section stiffeners increases to a certain level and then keep almost changeless. To T-section stiffener panels, the relation between thickness of skin and buckling load is approximately quadratic trinominal. Conclusions obtained can offer a referenced measure for the optimization design and engineering application of the structure.
