Abstract

When a plate of magnetically soft material is supported with its wide face normal to a uniform magnetic field, it will buckle when the field reaches a critical value. It is shown theoretically that the critical buckling field for a “half-restrained" rectangular plate should be 0.833 of that for a half-restrained elliptical plate of identical dimensions and material. Limited experimental data support this conclusion. The effect of plate width upon critical buckling field is investigated experimentally and an empirical formula is presented which fits the data reasonably well. © 1974 by ASME.
