Experimental data of structural tests on non-continuously stiffened steel panels subjected to uniform compression

This dataset consists of data related to the experimental investigations of 50 non-continuously stiffened steel panels subjected to uniform compression (20 open-section, 30 closed-section specimens). The results and discussion associated with this dataset have been published as an open access article in the Journal of Thin-Walled Structures and can be accessed via this link: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tws.2023.111260

OVERVIEW:

specimen_naming.pdf - Graphical explaination of the the specimen naming

01_overview_results_specimen - one-page overview of all relevant test results for each specimen

02_tensile_coupon_test - XLSX-files (including engineering stress-strain and Cauchy stress-strain). 

open sections: coupon tests for the plates, stiffener webs and stiffener flanges

closed sections: test certificates + random controls (10x plate, 10x stiffener)

03_geometric_imperfection_data - STL-files (cleaned from outliers and centered to COS).

04_test_result_data - CSV-files (compare associated paper for placements of LVDTs)
