FACTORS WHICH AFFECT THE ACCURACY OF BUCKLING ANALYSIS
Initial imperfections (the effect is especially large for cylindrical and spherical shells); Curved geometry (very actual for aircraft panels); Uncertain supporting conditions; Inelastic behavior of material (the effect is crucial for lightweight and high-loaded aircraft structures). Ways to increase the accuracy of calculations: Use empirical methods and formulas (much testing required); Use numerical methods. 6

WAYS TO FIND THE CRITICAL STRESS WHICH IS BEYOND THE YEILD LIMIT
Empirical determination of critical stress (Southwell method). Usage of plasticity correction factors calculated by empirical formulas. Finite element analysis (FEA). 8

SOUTHWELL METHOD FOR PLATES
The deformed shape of panel is The view of coefficients is Near the buckling mode corresponding to m and n, the displacement is Thus, the graph of against will form a straight line with a slope of 9

PLASTICITY CORRECTION – EMPIRICAL FORMULAS
Kan and Sverdlov proposed the following formula to take into account the plastic behavior of material: , where ; - elastic critical stress (calculated using linear physical law); - material ultimate stress. 10
11
PLASTICITY CORRECTION – EMPIRICAL FORMULAS
According to Gerard, the nonlinear material behavior could be taken into account using the plasticity correction factor h: - tangent and secant moduli; - elastic and inelastic Poisson’s ratios. 11

POST-BUCKLING BEHAVIOR
The post-buckling behavior of aircraft panels is usually studied using the concept of “attached skin” having the width of 2c: 13

Transfer of initial imperfections
FLOWCHART OF NONLINEAR BUCKLING FEA Transfer of initial imperfections 1) Rename *.rst file to "buckling.rst“, move it from buckling to structural analysis directory. 2) Insert a command object in the environment: /prep7 upgeom,0.1,1,1,buckling,rst /solu 3) Set nonlinearities: large deflection -> on nonlinear effects -> yes 20
