SUMMARY
IWCRODUCTION
The assumptions made for the analysis are that the plate is elastic
and infinitely long, and that the bending moment, shear, and transverse
compression are constant along the length of the plate. The lower edge
is assumed to be simply supported and the upper edge, either simply
supported, elastically restrained against rotation, or clamped. The
neutral axis for bending stress is assumed to be halfkay between the
upper and lower edges.

Results in chsrt form are presetied for the case of both edges
simply supported and for the case of lower edge simply supported, upper
edge clamped. The solution, however, for the case of lower edge s~ly
supported, upper edge elastically restrained against rotation is given
in the form of a determinantal buckling equation. The loading smd edge

of the stress coefficients ad @ csn be substituted into the deter-
minant of coefficients and the value of the third stress coefficient
which satisfies the determinantal equation can thus be obtained. A
graphical minimization of the third stress coefficient with respect
to P gives the combinations of min&mn buckling-tiress coefficients.
The results of the calculations based on the lkth-order determinant of
coefficients (table IV) are given in table II.
The calculations for the infinitely long flat plate with the lower
ed$e simply supported and the upper edge clamped, based on the stability
determinant for the elastically restrained upper edge (tsble ID), were
graphical adjusted on the basis of calculations given in table II and
are the basis of figures 6 to 9.
