Buckling in shell structures, encompassing both spherical and cylindrical forms, remains a central focus in structural mechanics due to its implications in civil engineering, aerospace, soft robotics ...

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama - NASA engineers improvised in Huntsville on Wednesday when their carefully planned - and televised - "can crush" experiment didn't crush a rocket shell as expected. But improvise ...

Buckling, the sudden loss of structural stability, is usually the stuff of engineering nightmares. Mechanical buckling means catastrophic failure for every structural system from rockets to soufflés.

When a strut is loaded in compression it may be unable to support the applied load and fail by Buckling rather than by Plastic Deformation. The buckling process involves the primary elastic response ...

Approximate expressions for buckling loads of long rectangular plates with flexural/twist anisotropy and simply supported edges are derived. The novelty of the current approach lies in the use of ...
