  2. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    This formula was derived in 1744 by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler. [2] The column will remain straight for loads less than the critical load. The critical load is the greatest load that will not cause lateral deflection (buckling). For loads greater than the critical load, the column will deflect laterally.

  3. Johnson's parabolic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson's_parabolic_formula

    In structural engineering, Johnson's parabolic formula is an empirically based equation for calculating the critical buckling stress of a column. The formula is based on experimental results by J. B. Johnson from around 1900 as an alternative to Euler's critical load formula under low slenderness ratio (the ratio of radius of gyration to ...

  4. Buckling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling

    He derived the formula, termed Euler's critical load, that gives the maximum axial load that a long, slender, ideal column can carry without buckling. An ideal column is one that is: An ideal column is one that is:

  5. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    The Euler buckling formula defines the axial compression force which will cause a strut (or column) to fail in buckling. = where = maximum or critical force (vertical load on column), = modulus of elasticity,

  6. Perry–Robertson formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perry–Robertson_formula

    The Perry–Robertson formula is a mathematical formula which is able to produce a good approximation of buckling loads in long slender columns or struts, and is the basis for the buckling formulation adopted in EN 1993. The formula in question can be expressed in the following form:

  7. Southwell plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southwell_plot

    Southwell Plot constructed from a straight line fitted to experimental data points. The Southwell plot is a graphical method of determining experimentally a structure's critical load, without needing to subject the structure to near-critical loads. [1]

  8. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    Tension tends to pull small sideways deflections back into alignment, while compression tends to amplify such deflection into buckling. Compressive strength is measured on materials, components, [1] and structures. [2] The ultimate compressive strength of a material is the maximum uniaxial compressive stress that it can withstand before ...

  9. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    The governing formula for this mechanism is: Δ σ y = G b ρ {\displaystyle \Delta \sigma _{y}=Gb{\sqrt {\rho }}} where σ y {\displaystyle \sigma _{y}} is the yield stress, G is the shear elastic modulus, b is the magnitude of the Burgers vector , and ρ {\displaystyle \rho } is the dislocation density.
