Development of a Global/Local Approach and a Geometrically Non-linear Local Panel Analysis for Structural Design

A computationally efficient analysis capability for the geometrically non-linear response of compressively loaded prismatic plate structures was developed. Both a "full" finite strip solution procedure and a "reduced" solution procedure were implemented in a FORTRAN 90 computer c...
