Summary Annotation Steel plated structures are used in a variety of marine and land-based applications, such as ships, off-shore platforms, power and chemical plants, box-girder cranes and bridges. The basic strength members in steel plated structures include support members, plates, stiffened panels and girders. During their lifetime structures constructed using these members are subjected to various types of loading. For example: stiffened panels are prone to buckling, resulting in progressive collapse and failure. For more effective service life it is essential to predict the behaviour and ultimate load-bearing capacity of these structures. This major new book will provide the first authoritative survey on the stability, analysis and design of plated structures particularly laminated plates, tapered steel members, concrete filled tubular columns, and stiffened composite structures. CONTENTS Lateral buckling of tapered steel members; Buckling of plates with variable inplane forces; Finite element formulation for plate stability analysis; Mesh-free methods for buckling analysis of stiffened and corrugated plates; Plastic buckling of plates; Mechanical and thermal buckling of ceramic-metal plates; Thermal buckling and postbuckling of laminated plates; Local and interaction buckling in composite columns; Buckling and postbuckling of stiffened composite structures; Analysing the strength and ductility of plated structures; Concrete-filled steel box columns; Analysis of corrugated web plates in bridge structures; Interaction of curvature on the stability and design of curved plate girders; Buckling failure of structures consisting of curved plates; Local buckling and postbuckling analysis of light gauge steel members.
