Stability of multiply connected ribbed shells and plates in a magnetic field

We explain a method of studying electromagnetic loads, the stress-strain state, and the stability of multiply connected ribbed plates and shells made up of conducting materials and subject to the action of a variable magnetic field. We give the solutions of test problems. We study the influence of ribbing on the magnitude of the critical loads for various multiply connected plates.Translated fromMatematicheskie Metody i Fiziko-Mekhanicheskie Polya, Issue 34, 1991, pp. 83–89.
