Elastic buckling of thin plate with circular holes in bending

Stress redistribution will occur around the hole for the perforated plate under bending, and the buckling mode of bending plate is changed, which makes the design of bending plate more complicated. The finite element software ABAQUS is used to establish the perforated plate under bending model, analyze the degree of influence of the plate aspect ratio, width-thickness ratio, size and position of the holes, meanwhile, the distance between holes is also discussed. The results show that the thickness of the plate size and width-thickness ratio have little influence on the elastic buckling performance of thin plates with holes in bending. As the size of the holes increase, the influence is greater, and there is a certain regularity. The opening position is closer to the short side of the plate, the buckling coefficient of plate will be significantly decreased. The effect is greater with the increase of opening size, the distance between holes have a safe value, the position of the opening is more obvious for the buckling of the bending plate. Finally, based on the data from finite element analysis, the proposed formula of buckling stability coefficient k for the bending perforated plate is given.
