✦ Synopsis
In the companion Part I paper a description has been given of the development of a B-spline ®nite strip method for predicting the buckling stresses of rectangular sandwich plates which may have ®bre-reinforced composite laminated faceplates. Such faceplates may be modelled in the context of classical plate theory or of ®rst-order shear deformation plate theory. Here the use of the developed analysis capability in solving speci®c buckling problems is described. The convergence characteristics of the ®nite strip method are demonstrated, with respect to both the number of ®nite strips and the number of spline sections used. A wide range of applications is considered and this range embraces highly localised buckling, of the wrinkling type, as well as overall buckling.
