The objective of the current work is to investigate the buckling of FRP laminated plates using
ANSYS. The buckling load of an FRP laminated plate depends on a variety of variables,
including aspect ratio, thickness of the laminate, fibre orientation of the laminae that make up
the laminate, and the boundary conditions. Among other things, it was found that the buckling
load for FRP laminated plates simply supported on all edges the fibre orientation of the mat
layers +/- 45 degrees is highest compared to other boundary conditions considered. Plates is
subjected to uniaxial compression load, with five different boundary conditions have been
studied. The analysis method also covered post buckling behaviour of plates for simply
supported boundary condition with 45 degree orientation.
