  2. 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 ...

  3. Geometric and material buckling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Geometric_and_Material_Buckling

    Geometric buckling is a measure of neutron leakage and material buckling is a measure of the difference between neutron production and neutron absorption. [1] When nuclear fission occurs inside of a nuclear reactor, neutrons are produced. [1] These neutrons then, to state it simply, either react with the fuel in the reactor or escape from the ...

  4. 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.

  5. Buckling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling

    This results in a non-linear behaviour in the load carrying behaviour of these details. The ratio of the actual load to the load at which buckling occurs is known as the buckling ratio of a sheet. [1] High buckling ratios may lead to excessive wrinkling of the sheets which may then fail through yielding of the wrinkles. Although they may buckle ...

  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:

    Margin of Safety is the common method for design criteria. It is defined MS = P u /P − 1. For example, to achieve a factor of safety of 4, the allowable stress in an AISI 1018 steel component can be calculated to be = / = 440/4 = 110 MPa, or = 110×10 6 N/m 2. Such allowable stresses are also known as "design stresses" or "working stresses".

    Booze makers are getting an early hangover after the US surgeon general called for the addition of a warning label to alcoholic drinks. On Friday, shares of beer and alcohol giants sank across the ...

  9. Shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress

    The formula to calculate average shear stress τ or force per unit area is: [1] =, where F is the force applied and A is the cross-sectional area.. The area involved corresponds to the material face parallel to the applied force vector, i.e., with surface normal vector perpendicular to the force.
