| Abstract | A theoretical study is presented on the elastic and inelastic local
buckling strength of longitudinally stiffened box sections in combined
compression and bending. Particular attention is paid to the effects of welding residual stresses on the buckling strength of such sections. The finite strip method is employed to obtain the stiffness and geometric
matrices of a buckled box section based on the deformation theory of plas
ticity. The effective rigidity of a buckled longitudinal stiffener is
evaluated based on the tangent modulus theory. In the numerical study, elastic buckling of unstiffened and stiffened box sections is first discussed. Optimum proportion of cross-section and the effects of longitudinal stiffeners are the major subjects in the discussion. Finally, inelastic buckling of stiffened box sections is discussed in comparison with
that of isolated stiffened plates. |
