This paper presented the nonlinear behaviors of the single-layered lattice dome, which is widely used for the long-span structure system. The behaviors were analysed through the classical shell buckling theory as the single-layered lattice dome behaves like continum thin shell due to its geometric characteristics, and finite element analysis method using the software program Nastran. Shell buckling theory provides two types of buckling loads, the global- and member buckling, and finite element analysis provides the ultimate load of geometric nonlinear analysis as well as the buckling load of Eigen value solution. Two types of models for the lattice dome were analysed, that is rigid- and pin-jointed structure. Buckling load using the shell buckling theory for each type of lattice dome, governed by the minimum value of global buckling or member buckling load, resulted better estimation than the buckling load with Eigen value analysis. And it is useful to predict the buckling pattern, that is global buckling or member buckling.

복합재료는 강도-무게비가 다른 재료들에 비해 훨씬 크기 때문에 부재의 좌굴문제가 대단히 중요하게 취급되며, 본 논문에서는 축방향 압축력을 받는 복합재료로 된 쉘 부재의 좌굴해석이 수행된다. 이 재료는 일반적으로 이방성 재료 특성을 나타내 보이나, 섬유들이 한 방향으로만 배치되어 있는 경우 섬유방향에 연직한 평면에서의 강도나 탄성계수들은 모두 일정한 횡 등방성 재료성질을 가진 것으로 간주할 수 있다. 9 절점 degenerate 쉘 유한요소를 사용한 선형안정해석, LUSAS 범용 프로그램을 이용한 구조해석, 그리고 고전적 쉘 좌굴방정식에 의한 해석들을 수행하였으며, 그 결과들을 서로 비교, 분석하였다. 고려된 등방성 재료나 횡 등방성 재료의 경우 모두, degenerate 유한요소해석으로 계산한 임계하중들은 고전적 이론해에 의한 결과들 보다 낮았으며, LUSAS 결과들과는 거의 같았다. 이는 degenerate 유한요소에 의한 선형안정해석 결과들이 안전측에 듬을 의미하며, 복합재료로 된 쉘 구조물의 좌굴해석에 degenerate 유한요소를 효율적으로 적용할 수 있음을 의미한다.

The ratios of elastic to shear modulus of the structures as laminated composite plates and shells, are very large. They are much susceptible to effect of shear deformation. In order to obtain the accurate solutions of laminated composite plate and shells, the effects of shear strain should be considered for the analysis and design of them. Especially, the more exact solution can be obtained in applying to higher-order shear deformation theory. Therefore, in this paper, the third-order shear deformation theory is used to present the distributions of bending, the characteristics of natural frequencies and the buckling load according to the effects of ply orientation, number of layers for the laminated composite plates and shells with simply supported boundary conditions.

In order to promote the efficient use of composite materials, effort is currently being directed at the development of design criteria for composite structures. Insofar as design against buckling is concerned, it is well known that, for metal shells, a key step is the definition of 'knockdown' factors on the elastic critical buckling stress accounting mainly for the influence of initial geometric imperfections. At present, the imperfection sensitivity of composite shells has not been explored in detail. Due to the large number of parameters influencing buckling response (considerably larger than for isotropic shells), a very large number of tests would be needed to quantify imperfection sensitivity experimentally. An alternative approach is to use validated numerical models for this task. Thus, the objective of this paper is to outline the underlying theory used in developing a composite shell element and to present results from a validation exercise and subsequently from a parametric study on axially loaded glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) curved panels using finite element modelling. Both eigenvalue and incremental analyses are performed, the latter including the effect of initial geometric imperfection shape and amplitude, and the results are used to estimate 'knockdown' factors for such panels.

In this paper, stochastic imperfection sensitivity analyses of stiffened cylindrical shells under static load are presented. Multimode formulation is performed for the buckling load calculation based on the Donnell's theory and Galerkin approximation. Random imperfection field theory and response surface method are combined with deterministic bucking analysis scheme to perform stochastic imperfection sensitivity analyses of stiffened cylindrical shells considering random geometric imperfection. From the characteristics of probabilistic bucking load, the relation between reliability index and safety parameter can be obtained in addition to the relation between load and reliability index. Those results can be used to determine the range of required safety parameter and acceptable imperfection.

This paper proposes a theoretical solution of elastic critical buckling load of infinitely long pipelines with non-uniform thickness under external pressure. The non-uniform cross section of pipelines can be considered as corroded or stiffened pipelines so that this paper can be a fundamental research of pipelines that are essential technology for offshore industries. The theoretical solution of pipelines with non-uniform thickness is derived with an assumption that a cylindrical shell under external pressure can be considered as a simple ring. The eigenfunctions are derived to obtain the critical buckling load. The reduced thickness and the reduced range are considered as variables in parametric analysis. The finite element analysis is performed to verify the theoretical solutions and the results of the analytic method and the finite element method are in good agreement.

An explicit direct time integration method based solution algorithm is proposed to predict dynamic postbuckling response of thin plates. Based on the von Karman's plate equations and Marquerre's shallow shell theory, a rectangular plate finite element is formulated and utilized in this study. The element formulation takes into account geometrical nonlinearity and initial deflection of plates. The solution algorithm employs the central difference method. Using the computer program developed by the authors, dynamic postbuckling behavior of elastic thin plates under impact loading is investigated by considering the time variation of load and load duration. The efficiency of the proposed solution algorithm is examined through illustrative numerical examples.

A simplified method for the calculation of dynamic characteristics of initially stressed antisymmetric cross-ply laminated shells is presented in this paper using the natural frequencies under unloading state. The equation of motion of laminated shell with two opposite edges simply supported is investigated on the basis of Rayleigh-Ritz method and Mindlin shell theory with effect of the curvature term. The relationships of the non-dimensional natural frequencies with initial stresses the coeffcients of critical buckling and the boundaries of te dynamic principal instability region can be characterized by the non-dimensional natureal frequencies under unloading state. Numerical examples are presented t verify the simplified equations and to illustrate potential applications of the analysis.
