TLDR
In this paper, the authors considered simply supported edge conditions, for which the buckling modes consist of integer numbers of half sine waves in the two perpendicular directions, and showed that the lowest buckling mode in biaxial compression has a single half wave in an effectively short direction, or in both directions if the plate is effectively nearly square.
Abstract
Simply supported edge conditions are considered, for which the buckling modes consist of integer numbers of half sine waves in the two perpendicular directions. This note con siders the usual design case of specified load ratios. The lowest buckling mode in biaxial compression is shown to have a single half wave in an effectively short direction, or in both directions if the plate is effectively nearly square. The tension/compression case has a single half wave in the tension direction. The number of multiple half waves can be ap proximately determined to minimize numerical search computations.

Correlation Between some Stability Problems for Orthotropic and Isotropic Plates under Bi-Axial and Uni-Axial Direct Stress

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered four buckling problems: (a) a rectangular orthotropic plate, with all edges simply supported, subjected to compression on its ends and a known compression or tension on its sides; (b) the same as (a), but with the ends clamped and sides simply supported; (c) a rectilinear orthotropic (ROR) plate with both ends and sides clamped.
