Dynamic, multimode buckling of thin-walled columns subjected to in-plane pulse loading

Abstract The present paper deals with dynamic, coupled buckling of long, prismatic columns simply supported at the ends. This investigation concerns thin-walled structures of a square cross-section with or without intermediate stiffeners under in-plane pulse loading. The dynamic load of a rectangular shape has been assumed in the analysis. The structures are composed of rectangular plates interconnected along longitudinal edges. A plate model is adopted in the analysis. The material of the structure is isotropic. The problem has been investigated on the basis of the disturbance theory. The dynamic critical load factor DLF has been determined using the Budiansky and Hutchinson criterion. The results obtained with the analytical–numerical method (ANM), which employs the asymptotic perturbation theory, have been compared with the finite element method (FEM).
