EULERIAN INSTABILITY OF CHARGED FIXED PLATES
I. N. Aliev and I. A. Naumov UDC 537.29:531.21.224.4 The instability of a thin elastic charged fixed plate has been considered. It has been proved that the threshold value of the square of the electric-field strength grows linearly with tension of the plate and its rigidity. N. E.
