Plated structures' buckling checks revolutionized with new design stress conversion method.
Plated structures can collapse suddenly under pressure, so it's crucial to know how much they can handle to prevent disasters. A study looked at how to use computer models to check if these structures are strong enough. They found that by breaking down the stress on the plates into different parts, they could accurately predict when buckling might happen. This method can help engineers design safer structures that can withstand heavy loads without breaking.
