Abstract An analytical study is presented on the flexural buckling of sandwich beams considering thermal-induced non-uniform cross-sectional properties. The formula for determining the buckling loads of sandwich beams under a linearly varied non-uniform temperature distribution scenario, both with and without considering the influence of transverse shear deformation , is derived. The effects of local reductions in Young's modulus and shear modulus on the flexural buckling of sandwich beams are discussed. The obtained results demonstrate the importance of considering non-uniform cross-sectional properties and associated shear effects in the buckling analysis of sandwich beams when they are exposed to a thermal environment .
