Buckling of Steel Plates in Magnetic Fields

자기장에 의한 강판의 좌굴거동

An analytical study on the stability of steel plates in the presence of magnetic fields is carried out based on a model which accounts for the nonlinear field-structure interaction. The resultant force system arising from the interaction between the magnetic fields and ferromagnetic plates is derived using the variational principle. The bending and buckling problems of steel plates in oblique magnetic fields are investigated with the aid of the finite element method. Numerical results reveal some interesting features of the magnetoelastic buckling phenomenon.
