I. Brilla et L. Marko, NUMERICAL-SOLUTION OF CIRCULAR PLATES USING THE METHOD OF LOCAL VARIATIONS, Zeitschrift fur angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, 77, 1997, pp. 529-530
The paper deals with the problem of buckling of a thin elastic clamped
plate of constant thickness. The convenient form of variational formu
lation for numerical solution is introduced. The numerical solution is
then found by the method of local variations.
