Variables Buckling of Partial Cylinder Plate Calculator 
Radius of curvature
r = mm
width of panel measured on arc
b = mm
thickness of plate
t = mm
Modulus of Elasticity
E = Mpa
Poissons ratio
n =
Calculated Results
If a > b, then the solution does not depend on a
Buckling stress
  s'1= MPa   Eq1          
Compare with flat plate solution
s'flat = Mpa
Eq2
Note: if b/r is less tha 0.5 and b and a are nearly equal
  s'2= Mpa   Eq3
