Abstract
The stability of simply supported rectangular plates under patch compression is revisited using Ritz's energy method. Both single and double Fourier series are adopted as deflection series to compute the values for buckling coefficients. The results demonstrate that—in contrast to earlier works—the double-series approach is required if accurate solutions are to be attained.
