STABILITY OF RIBBED PLATES IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF RAILWAY VEHICLES

ZUR STABILITAT GESICKTER BLECHE IM SCHIENENFAHRZEUGBAU

In the case of plates with tailed-in ends, compressed along the ribbing, coupled elongations are produced as a result of bending deformation. These additional compression stresses are superposed upon the primary buckling constraints. For this reason, the elastic limit can be exceeded locally in ribbed walls, more especially in the intervention zone of the transversal forces. Other origins of this phenomenon can be: lack of precision in assembling, pre-existent deformations in the ribbed plates, residual welding tensions and the very asymmetrical form of the ribbing. Tests have been carried out in order to determine the bending stress.
