Ultimate Strength Analysis of Stiffened Panels Using a Beam-Column Method

An efficient beam-column approach, using an improved step-by-step numerical method, is developed in the current research for studying the ultimate strength problems of stiffened panels with two load cases: 1) under longitudinal compression, and 2) under transverse compression. Chapter 2 presents...
