Conclusions
Progress report 1 shows
holes create new mixed buckling modes,
for web holes this means triggering distortional buckling earlier
DSM style methods are working in an average sense,
when reduced elastic buckling for holes is accounted for
New elastic buckling studies show that

Ultimate Strength of Plates/Members with holes
Nonlinear FEA is v. sensitive to solution algorithm
Net section revealed for stocky sections, small imperfections
Imperfection sensitivity not markedly increased due to hole
Hole impacts effective width and through thickness rigidity
Yielding patterns with hole are more like distortional buckling
mechanisms than local mechanisms suggesting reduced post-
buckling capacity and some concern with using DSM local
buckling curve for members with holes.
