Thermomechanical Postbuckling of Geometrically Imperfect Anisotropic Flat and Doubly Curved Sandwich Panels

Sandwich structures constitute basic components of advanced supersonic/hypersonic flight and launch vehicles. These advanced flight vehicles operate in hostile environments consisting of high temperature, moisture, and pressure fields. As a result, these structures are exposed to large lateral press...
