reason might that the stiffeners suffer lateral buckling and then induce panel failure for the FS2-A panels, which are classified as column failure as shown in Figure 13 and 14. The plate and the stiffeners collapse as a unit, which is needed to avoid by strong the stiffeners. For the LS2-A, BS2-A and US2-A panels, the plates occur buckling,


and then induce stiffeners failure. collapse modes are plate-induced failure mode.

The slopes of average stress-shortening curves during loading are similar in the FE analyses except 1bay-C9. The boundary condition


affects both the collapse


behaviours and the ultimate strength. However, this influence depends on the stiffener type to some degree. For the FS2-A panels, the average stress-shortening curves during unloading for the C5 and C6 condition are similar for the 1/2+1+1/2 bays model, but drop more slowly than the other cases. For the BS2-A and LS2-A panels, the average stress-shortening curves


during


unloading are similar between different configurations. For the US2-A panels, the average stress-shortening curves during unloading are similar for the C5, C6, C7 and C8 configurations, but drop more slowly than the other 3 bays model configurations.

Figure 15 shows the ultimate strength of the three bays model with the C1 condition. From the results shown, increasing the width of the panels, namely the number of the stiffeners or the length of the frames, decreases the ultimate


strength of the stiffened panels. The


displacement in the z direction of the frame is not equal to zero, as shown in Figures 16, which increases with increasing the B0. This is caused by the stiffness of the

For the stiffened panels under consideration, the FS and US series is more sensitive than the BS and LS series to the boundary condition and the geometric model during unloading. The external one side bay in the 3 bays model supply more flexible constraint for the middle bay than external half side bay in the 1/2+1+1/2 bays model. This causes the different equivalent stress between the 3 and 1/2+1+1/2 bays model as shown in Figure 13 and 14.
