FIG. 1. Composite Fixed-Free Column

where £7, W, and M(x, £) are the strain energy of bending, work produced
by the forces, and local bending moment, respectively.
And also, we assume that two sections are fixed together rigidly. More
precisely, if y(x) stands for the deflection function, then we have
y(i~) = y($+) (3a)

It should be pointed out that an alternate form to compute strain energy
is involving (v'[x])2 instead of y(x). However, when an assumed deflection
curve is used, it is preferable to use y(x). Since, in general, y(x) is more
accurate than y'(x).

Thus the critical value of the load q2 is found from the equation
U = W (17)
which represents the condition when the equilibrium configuration changes
from stable to unstable.
Substituting (13) and (15) into (17), we obtain
<2(82a + 28182p + 8I7) = 8?A + 28J82.B + 8|C (18)
in which the nondimensional quantity Q is
Q = zMj •••••(u)

The conditions for Q to be a minimum are
g= ° •-«
| =° »
or
S^ga - A) + 82(Qp - B) = 0 (21a)
S^QP - B) + 8 2 (2 7 - C) = 0 (216)
In order to avoid a trivial solution, we require that the determinant of
aforementioned equations must be equal to zero, i.e.,
Q2(ay - p2) + <2(2p5 - yA - aC) + AC - B2 = 0 (22)
the real roots of (22) give the buckling capacity of the two buckled modes.
The lower feasible root corresponds to the critical buckling load. The com-
plex roots simply mean that the buckling is impossible for the corresponding
various loads.
The preceding analysis is also applicable to composite column of more
than two different flexural rigidities or variable cross section, with slight
modifications in computing U and W.
So far, the discussion has been focused on fixed-free composite column.
For other end conditions, we should assume the appropriate function for
the deflection curve y(x), which satisfies the boundary conditions. For ex-
ample, if the column is fixed-hinged one, y(x) may be approximated by
v = 81(91^: - tan 0^) + 82(62x - tan 62x) (23)
where 6,-(i = 1,2) are the two smallest roots of following transcendental
equation
6 = tan 6 (24)

The Table 1 shows the comparisons between exact values by Wang (1988)
and approximations by this approach. Since Wang considered the uniform
flexural rigidity and self-weight, so we set X = 0, i) = 1 in the coefficient
functions. And also, according to Wang's (1988) paper, the definitions of
