Recognition of Structural Members Enables Plate Buckling Checks According to ABS / DNV Rules Directly in General FEA Software

Plate buckling strength is an important aspect of offshore steel construction design. We will show how the problem of both general FEA analysis (strength evaluation, displacement, and deflection checks) and plate buckling check according to ABS or DNV rules is solved with the help of FEA and code checking tools.
