Abstract: Full-range analysis for the buckling and post buck ling at rectangular plates under in-plane compression has been made by perturbation technique which takes deflection as its perturbation parameter.In this paper the effects of initial geometric imperfection on the postbuc kling behavior of plates have been discussed. It is seen that the effect of initial imperfection on the inelastic postbuckling oj plates is sensitive. By comparison, it is found that the theoretical results of this paper are in good agreement with experiments.

Key words: structural stability, inelastic buckling, postbuckling, rectangular plate
