Abstract
The buckling and vibration characteristics of stiffened plates with cutout subjected to in-plane partial edge loadings at the plate boundary are studied using finite element method. Buckling loads and vibration frequencies are determined for different plate and cutout aspect ratios, various boundary conditions, partial edge loading at different locations, cutout ratios, various parameters of stiffeners by varying the number, size and location of the stiffeners. The analysis presented determines the stresses all over the region for different kinds of loading and edge conditions. In the structural modelling, the plate and the stiffeners are treated as separate elements where the compatibility between these two types of elements is maintained. The buckling and vibration characteristics are discussed and the free vibration results available in the literature for stiffened plates with/without cutout are compared.
