We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi Onkar P., 

I made it. However, I obtained the same buckling load as that obtained for a plate simply supported on four sides. What are the boundary conditions for the side that has elastic constraints? I considered null displacement in y, restricted rotation in x and remote displacement (rotation). For rotation, I considered a unitary moment applied to the longitudinals. This way, the applied rotation is rot: 1/100 rad = 0.5729°. It is worth mentioning that M=k*rot (k=100 N.m/m).

See the figures, please.

Thanks
