Steel thin plates with cutouts are mainly used in ships, aircrafts and automobile as cutouts provide provision for assessment, service and maintenance. The size of cutout has noteworthy consequence on the buckling load. Plates continue to carry loads even after buckling. Significance of this paper is to study the outcome of material properties and geometrical varying effects on the buckling load carrying capability of the rectangular thin plates with simply supported on both width and length of plates are clamped. Comparison between solid plate and plate with cutout is being done. Changes in orientation of the elliptical cutout and maximum buckling load that can be obtained are studied. The numerical study was done using Kirchhoff’s classical plate theory, and simulations were carried out using Ansys 2020R Workbench.
