Effect of size and orientation of a centrally located dent on the ultimate strength of a thin square steel plate under axial compression
Abstract Thin steel plates are widely used in many structural applications because of its high load carrying capacity with less weight. The load carrying capacity of thin plates mainly depends on the imperfections present in them. Dent is one of the common geometrical imperfections present in thin shell structures which may be formed due to mechanical damage caused by accidental loading or impact. In this work, influence of various dent parameters (dent length, dent width, dent depth and angle of orientation of the dent) on the ultimate strength of a thin square plate with a centrally located dent is studied using nonlinear static finite-element analysis, under uni-axial compressive loading with simply supported boundary conditions.
