The use of polynomial shape function in the buckling
1 like315 views
This document presents a study on the use of polynomial shape functions in the buckling analysis of cold-formed composite rectangular plates. A polynomial series function was utilized in the Ritz method to determine the critical buckling load, showing that this load decreases as the aspect ratio increases from 0.1 to 2.0. The results indicate that the approach effectively satisfies boundary conditions and can predict buckling behavior accurately.

Abstract
The use of polynomial series function in the buckling analysis of a CCFC is presented. The polynomial series shape function was
truncated at the fifth orthogonal terms, which satisfied all the boundary conditions of the plate to obtain a peculiar shape
function, which was applied in Ritz method. The peculiar shape function is substituted into the total potential energy functional,
which was minimized, and the critical buckling load of the plate was obtained. The critical buckling load is a function of a
coefficient, “K”. The values of K from earlier and the present studies were compared within the range of aspect ratios from 0.1 to
2.0. A graph of critical buckling load against aspect ratio was plotted. It was discovered that for aspect ratios of 0.4, 0.5 and 1.0,
the critical buckling loads coefficients were 26.94, 17.39 and 4.83. It was also observed from the behavior of the graph that as
aspect ratio increases from 0.1 to 2.0, the critical buckling load decreases.

1.INTRODUCTION
Since the origin of plate, Fourier and trigonometric series
has been used to treat plate problems as shape function.
There are many approaches many scholars employed in
solving the problem of plates like energy method, numerical
method, and equilibrium method. These approaches give
approximate results in most difficult situations.
C.Erdem and Ismail used numerical method to analyze an
isotropic rectangular plate with four clamped edges under
distributed loads of an exact solution of the governing
equation in terms of trigonometric and hyperbolic
function[1]. They also compared the obtained results with
those earlier reported, which shows reasonable agreement
with other available results, but with a simpler and practical
approach. Robert and Govindjee used the classical double
cosine series expansion and an exploit of the Sherman-
Woodburg Formular to solve the problem of clamped
rectangular plate [2]. Ibearugbulem used Taylor-Mclaurin's
series as shape function to analyze the instability of axially
compressed thin rectangular plate with four edges clamped
[5]. He truncated the Taylor-Mclaurins series at the fifth
term which satisfied all the boundary conditions of the plate.
Upon substituting the resulted shape function into the total
potential energy, he obtained the critical buckling load of
the plate. Some scholars used finite element method in
analyzing the problems of rectangular plate like Han and
Petty[3], Tajdari et al [11], An- chien Wu et al [10], Ye [9],
Rakesh [8], Sandeep Singh et al [7], and Ganapathi et al [4]
Although the buckling analysis of rectangular plates has
received the attention of many researchers for several
years, its treatment has left much to be done. Most of the
available solutions do not satisfy exactly the prescribed
boundary conditions or the governing differential agnation
or both. In the past, there were no reference books to which](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/theuseofpolynomialshapefunctioninthebuckling-140808011721-phpapp01/85/The-use-of-polynomial-shape-function-in-the-buckling-1-320.jpg)

Engineers and students can turn to for a clear and orderly
exposition of the Isotropic rectangular plate with clamped –
clamped – free – clamped edge subjected to dynamic
boundary conditions, which are also known as non-essential
boundary condition. Ibearugbulemsolved CCFC rectangular
plate using Taylor – Mclaurin’s shape function with the aid
of eigen value computer programme[6].
In order to provide the solutions to this problem, this paper
is presented to address the issue. The plate is subjected to in-
plane load in one axis (x-axis) of the principal plane as
shown in figure 1.
2. TOTAL POTENTIAL ENERGY FUNCTIONAL

POLYNOMIAL SERIES.
The boundary conditions for CCFC plate are;

(# 4 ) = 0 (4)
V&(& 4 )

Applying these boundary conditions in equation 2 gave;
w = A(R − 2R + R3)(4Q − 4Q + Q3) (6)
4. APPLICATION OF RITZ METHOD
Partial derivative of equation (6) with respect to either R or
Q or both gave the following equations;
w′#
= A(2R − 6R + 4R )(4Q − 4Q + Q3) (7)
w′′#
= A(2 − 12R + 12R )(4Q − 4Q + Q3) (8)
w′&
= A(R − 2R + R3)(8Q − 12Q + 4Q ) (9)
w′′&
= A(R − 2R + R3)(8 − 24Q + 12Q ) (10)
w # &
= A(2R − 6R + 4R )(8Q − 12Q + 4Q ) (11)
Integrating the square of these equations (7), (8), (10), and
(11) partially with respect to R and Q in a closed domain
respectively gave:

5. RESULT AND CONCLUSIONS
A graph of critical buckling load against aspect ratio was
plotted. From the graph, it was observed that as the aspect
ratio increases from 0.1 to 2.0, the critical buckling load
decreases. The graph was divided into two segments ranging
from 0.1 to 0.7 In the first segment, the graph is of 6th

The average percentage difference between the solutions
from Ibearugbulem and the present study shown on table 1
was 32.112%. This value is more than the required
percentage because Ibearugbulem used a rigorous computer
matrix program to analyze the plate which has so many
disadvantages. It was observed that as the aspect ratio
increases from 0.1 to 2.0, the present work and
Ibearugbulem start converging.

6. CONCLUSION
The polynomial series as a shape function was applied in
this paper for the buckling behavior of an isotropic
rectangular plate.It was also deduced that the polynomial
series satisfies all the non-essential (Dynamics) boundary
conditions of the graph.
The shape function derived in this approach is a good
alternative to the shape function assumed using
trigonometric series. Therefore, the present method can
accurately predict the critical buckling load of isotropic
rectangular plates.

This value is more than the required percentage because Ibearugbulem used a rigorous computer matrix program to analyze the plate which has so many disadvantages. It was observed that as the aspect ratio increases from 0.1 to 2.0, the present work and Ibearugbulem start converging.

CONCLUSION The polynomial series as a shape function was applied in this paper for the buckling behavior of an isotropic rectangular plate.It was also deduced that the polynomial series satisfies all the non-essential (Dynamics) boundary conditions of the graph. The shape function derived in this approach is a good alternative to the shape function assumed using trigonometric series. Therefore, the present method can accurately predict the critical buckling load of isotropic rectangular plates. REFERENCE [1]. C.
