• High Aspect Ratio– Lower bucking stress

Clamped

Free• Less Restraint

– Lower buckling stress

– Clamp->Hinge->Free

Plasticity Effects

• Buckling Resisted by Bending Stress

• Yielding Limits Bending Stress and Reduces Buckling Resistance

• Peak Panel Stress is Much Higher than Average Stress

• Local Yielding Occurs Even if Average Stress < Yield Stress

• True Buckling Stress < Elastic Buckling Stress

• Accounted for by • is Different for Comp vs Shear

• is Depends on Material

Local Buckling

• Instability of the Free Segments of Stringers, Frames, Longerons, Beams, Columns

• Can Be Predicted by Treating the Segment as a Long Panel (a/b>>1) with a Single Free Edge

Skin-Stringer Panels

So far, we have treated skin-stringer panels as independent elements

• Skin Buckling Between Stringers => Panel with Hinged Ends• Stringer Column Buckling => Euler Buckling• Stringer Flange Buckling => Local Long Panel Buckling• Stringer Crippling => Crippling Failure

There are other failure modes to consider

IsoGrid Panels

• Skin-Stringer Panels – Very Weight Efficient

– Resist Loads in One Direction Only

– Weak in Transverse Direction

• Sandwich Panels– Bidirectional Strength/Stiffness

– Interior Cannot Be Inspected

• Isogrid Construction– Isotropic In-Plane Strength and Stiffness

– Can Be Easily Inspected
