Abstract

This paper extends the Moon-Pao theoretical treatment of the buckling of a rectangular beam of infinite length I and infinite width w to the case (a) I infinite, w finite, and the case (b) I finite, w infinite. Then an approximate formulation is used to obtain a lower bound to the critical buckling field for the case (c) I finite, w finite. It is concluded that finite specimen size alone cannot account for the discrepancy between the Moon-Pao theory and experiments. © 1977 by ASME.
