Influence of flanged-cutout on the buckling behaviors of square plate under uniaxial compression

Cutouts are commonly found in aerospace, ships, and marine structures, which have a great influence on mechanical properties such as stress concentration, natural frequency, and structural load-bearing performance of the structure. In this study, buckling behaviors of a square plate with a circular...

description Cutouts are commonly found in aerospace, ships, and marine structures, which have a great influence on mechanical properties such as stress concentration, natural frequency, and structural load-bearing performance of the structure. In this study, buckling behaviors of a square plate with a circular flanged cutout at the center are explored numerically, aiming to address the influence of different cutout parameters on the elastic and elasto-plastic buckling behaviors of the perforated plate. The flanged-perforated plate is subjected to uniaxial compressive loads, and the four edges are simply supported in the out-of-plane direction. The influence of various cutout parameters on the elastic and elasto-plastic buckling behaviors of the perforated plate is examined through a series of buckling analysis. In addition, structural weight reduction of the uniaxial compressed perforated square plates is carried out under the constraint of the elastic buckling stress of the plate structure. The findings indicate that different cutout parameters have a significant impact on the buckling performance of the plate. Perforated plates with flanging exhibit higher buckling strength than those without flanging, and variations in plate geometric parameters (such as the plate slenderness ratio and cutout radius ratio) are associated with increases in elastic buckling stress and elasto-plastic ultimate strength. The results of this paper can provide references for the design of flanged-cutouts in engineering.
