Summary: | This paper presents a general solution to the problem of local buckling of doubly symmetric fiber-reinforced polymeric structural shapes subjected to linearly-varying edge loading. This solution is based upon the classical theory of orthotropic plates and accounts for the elastic restraint of various plate elements comprising the cross-section. The buckling equations for box and I-shape beams subjected to pure bending in one case and to uniform compression in another case are deduced as special cases from the present solution. Numerical results in the form of design charts are discussed and presented in a companion paper. |
