Study of Size Effect in Sheet-stringer Panels

Abstract

An investigation was conducted to determine whether there are significant size effects in compressive strength of large Z-stiffened sheet-stringer panels as compared with geometrically similar smaller models and thus to ascertain whether the prediction of the strength of large panels by model tests is reliable. The specimens studied were manufactured from 7075-T6 aluminum alloy and included four representative types of panel designs, with full- and one-quarter-scale panels of each type.

The Combinations of Thermal and Load Stresses for the Onset of Permanent Buckling in Plates

A simple and practical method for evaluating the onset of permanent buckling in plates in the presence of combined thermal and compressive load stresses is outlined. A particular application of the method shows reasonable agreement with tests of 17-7 PH stainless-steel square tubes. The results indicate that the compressive load stress which the plate can support at the onset of permanent buckling is substantially reduced as the temperature difference of the plate and adjoining members increases.
