Structural failures have been experienced recently in some panels of relatively thin plating, dished to about twice the plating thickness, and failure has been attributed to snap-through buckling.Snap-through buckling may be defined as the lateral instability of a dished panel when loaded on the convex side. (Such an effect js frequently observed in the lids of biscuit tins.)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
