Abstract

A simple finite element formulation is presented for evaluating the thermal post-buckling behaviour of rectangular plates. The results are presented in the form of linear thermal loads and ratios of nonlinear to linear thermal loads for various values of the central deflection and for three sets of boundary conditions. The effect of elastic foundation on the thermal post-buckling behaviour is also evaluated for various values of foundation stiffness parameter.
