Buckling of circular plate with foundation and elastic edge

This paper deals with stability of circular plate with foundation and elastic edge against translation and rotation. Exact solution is utilized for development of governing equation for the problem under consideration. This paper reveals the subsistence of mode switching and it varies with foundation parameter. Fundamental buckling may not relate to axisymmetric as earlier implicated. The buckling load parameter rises monotonically with the foundation parameter. Percent of increase in load-carrying ability with foundation is calculated. A wide range of data is generated based on the dominance of rotational, translational, and foundation parameters on the stability of the system.
