Initial weight loss of plastics in a vacuum
By utilizing linear stability theory, solutions for elastic buckling of short and moderate length orthotropic cylinders under axial compression are presented and correlated with experimental results on circumferentially stiffened cylinders. The plastic buckling of short and moderate length isotropic and orthotropic cylinders is also investigated and the theoretical results correlated with available experimental data. A discussion of the effects of finite deflection and initial imperfection is presented in order to explain the correlation obtained between the theory and the experimental data.
