Buckling of compression plate in composite section
Buckling of compression plate in composite section
(OP)
Hi All,
I have an unusual problem which I am trying to get some guidance on. I have a composite section which is being used in bending. The section comprises a glass fibre and mineral wool filled core with thin steel plates bonded either side. I am trying to establish how much buckling restraint the core will give to the plate in compression. Given the compressive stiffness of the core and adequate bond, I am looking for a means of estimating the transverse restraint that the core would provide to the plate between its edge restraints. I could then estimate any extra capacity beyond that for a plate with similar edge restraint conditions but no uniform transverse restraint to the plate surface. Any Guidance anyone can suggest for this would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
M

Don't know if something similar exists in the literature for plates, but the analysis as a beam for bending in one direction only should give a reasonable estimate.
