Corak, M., Parunov, J., Teixeira, A. P. and Guedes Soares, C. (2010), “Performance of the Common Structural Rules design formulations for the ultimate strength of uniaxially loaded plates and stiffened panels”, Advanced Ship Design for Pollution Prevention, Guedes Soares & Parunov (eds), Taylor & Francis Group, London, pp. 113-120

The paper deals with application of the nonlinear finite element analysis for collapse assessment of uniaxially loaded plates and stiffened panels of ship structures. Consideration is given to models extension, boundary conditions, mesh size and initial imperfections appropriate for collapse analyses. The load-end shortening curves of plates and stiffened panels computed by nonlinear finite ele¬ment analysis are compared with those proposed in Common Structural Rules.
