The effects of the in-plane prebuckling deformations as well as the effect of shear flexibility on the lateral buckling of bisymmetric thin-walled composite beams has been investigated in this paper. The analysis is based ...

Based on a seven-degree-of-freedom shear deformable beam model, analytical solutions are derived for the lateral stability analysis of cross-ply laminated thin-walled beams subjected to combined axial and bending loads. ...

The static stability of thin-walled composite beams, considering shear deformation and geometrical non-linear coupling, subjected to transverse external force has been investigated in this paper. The theory is formulated ...

A geometrically non-linear theory for thin-walled composite beams is developed for both open and closed cross-sections and taking into account shear flexibility (bending and warping shear). This non-linear formulation is ...

The static non-linear behavior of thin-walled composite beams is analyzed considering the effect of initial imperfections. A simple approach is used for determining the influence of imperfection on the buckling, prebuckling ...

This paper addresses the thermal buckling behavior of tanks having a fixed roof, as employed to store fuel in the oil industry. The study is performed based on finite element analyses of the shell, including linear analysis, ...
