Extract

The elastic stability of rectangular plates compressed in two perpendicular directions by forces uniformly distributed along the edges is considered. Edges x = 0 and x = a are simply supported, edge y = 0 is free and edge y = b is rigidly built-in (Fig. 1). Using the method described in a previous paper, after satisfying the boundary conditions at the edges of plate, the following transcendental equation is obtained:
