Saad-Eldeen, S., Garbatov, Y. e Guedes Soares, C. (2015), “Compressive strength assessment of rectangular steel plates with a local dent or an opening”, Maritime Technology and Engineering, Guedes Soares, C. & Santos T.A. (Eds.), Taylor & Francis Group, London, UK, pp. 543-552

The objective of this work is to compare the stress-strain behaviour of rectangular steel plates accounting for the presence of an opening or a dent, when a uniaxial compressive load is applied. Extensive nonlinear finite element analyses are performed, where the effect of several governing parameters on the stress-strain relationship are analysed, including plate thickness, opening and dent sizes, shape and depth. The similarity in the structural response of a plate with a dent or an opening is identified. The pre and post buckling behaviour, stress-strain relationship and the ultimate strength lateral deformation are discussed and several conclusions are derived.
