Differential Equation For Coloumn Buckling - MOM-IV - Module-14 PDF

Column Buckling
A simple column is a long, straight, prismatic
bar subjected to compressive, axial loads
P P Buckling is when a stable
equilibrium becomes unstable.
During initial compression, if a
slight perturbation is laterally
induced and the load is
removed, the column returns to
its straight configuration.
When buckling occurs, a critical
value is reached at which, when
perturbed laterally, the column
will not return to the straight
configuration.
For long slender columns, the
critical buckling occurs at stress
levels below the proportional
limit of the material . This type
of buckling is an elastic
P P phenomenon.
