Abstract
It is shown that the conjugate load/displacement method which has been used for the elastic stability analysis of isotropic plates can also be used for orthotropic plates. Results are presented for a range of p lates of various rectangular configurations and boundary conditions, a s well as for different values of the material modular ratios. A range of loadings is covered; in particular the case of concentrated loads is dealt with. For this loading case the conjugate load/displacement m ethod has been found to be particularly useful.
