Euler's formula

A column with one end fixed and one end free has a critical buckling load of 100 N. For the same column, if the free end is replaced with a pinned end then the critical buckling lo...

The minimum axial compressive load, $P$, required to initiate buckling for a pinned-pinned slender column with bending stiffness $EI$ and length $L$ is

A steel column of rectangular section (15 mm × 10 mm) and length 1.5 m is simply supported at both ends. Assuming modulus of elasticity, E = 200 GPa for steel, the critical axial l...
