Influence of stiffener on aluminium perforated plates subjected to in-plane shear loading

Shear buckling is an important phenomenon as it enables the design becomes more efficient structures which would be possible if the critical buckling load is treated as the maximum allowable load. This is particularly significant in aerospace industry where lightweight, strength and reliability s...
