The buckling of a long curved panel under axial compression

D. M. A. Leggett (H. M. Stationery Office, 1942)

In modern aeroplane design a detailed knowledge of the behaviour of thin panels is very necessary. The problem of flat panels may be regarded as largely solved. This is not true, however, of curved panels and the object ...
The buckling of a square panel under shear when one pair of opposite edges is clamped, and the other pair is simply supported

D. M. A. Leggett (H. M. Stationery Office, 1941)

For an efficient design of spar with thin sheet web it is important to know the load which will just cause the web to buckle. As stiffeners divide the web into panels, it is required to find the buckling stress of rectangular ...
The initial buckling of slightly curved panels under combined shear and compression

D. M. A. Leggett (H. M. Stationery Office, 1943)

The initial buckling of flat rectangular panels under combined shear and compression has been investigated theoretically in R. & M. 1965. This report extends the results given there to panels which are long and slightly ...
Summary of the theoretical work done on the stability of thin plates 1939 to 1946

D. M. A. Leggett (1950)

Most of the work done during the war on the stability of thin plates has been written up and published in reports (Refs. 1 to 8). These reports do not however form a connected series, and the object of this summary is to ...
