The Stabilisation of a Thin Sheet by a Continuous Supporting Medium

Abstract: The structural problems of metal aircraft design largely centre round the difficulty of making efficient compression members. This difficulty is accentuated when loads are small in relation to the size of the structure. For example, the diameter of an aeroplane fuselage cannot usually be less than the height of a man, which results in such small forces at the surface of the shell that the lightest practicable beam is quite disproportionate to its strength.As a measure of load in relation to size, it is conveni… Show more

“…Theoretical studies of surface wrinkling may be traced back to 1940s when wrinkling of face struts was analyzed as a form of local elastic instability in structural sandwich panels (e.g., Gough et al, 1940;Wan, 1947;Goodier and Neou, 1951); an account of the historical development was well documented by Allen (1969). Later, a series of works by Biot extended the wrinkling theory to viscoelastic layers (Biot, 1957) and rubber-like nonlinear elastic media under finite strain (Biot, 1963 and1965).…”

“…In this plot, the present results (solid curve for BP907 and dashed curve for IM7) are compared with those of two other models. The first one, Gough et al (1939), is obtained by neglecting the presence of the interface shear traction q. In that calculation, instead of the continuity conditions, equations (10) are replaced by the requirement that the surface of the matrix Iv = 0) is constrained to satisfy In the second model (Reissner (1937)) the surface of the matrix is taken to be free from shearing stress.…”
