Stability and Buckling Stability is characterized as the ability of a structure to maintain its (stable) equilibrium under working conditions. Buckling is the behavior of a structure losing its equilibrium under working conditions. This is another type of failure iterion, in addition to strength (fracture/yielding), stiffness (deformation) and fatigue iteria. Buckling occurs suddenly and results in catastrophic accident. 3
Examples of Columns 4
Conventional Design of Columns In the design of columns, osssectional area is selected such that - allowable stress is not exceeded A - deformation falls within specifications AE After these design calculations, many discover that the column is unstable under loading and that it suddenly becomes sharply curved or buckles. 5

Columns with Two Fixed Ends The symmetry of the supports and of the loading requires that the shear at C and the horizontal reactions at both ends be zero. The equation of the deflection curve involves sine and cosine functions. oint D must be a point of inflection, where the bending moment is zero. It follows that the portion DE of the column must behave as a pin ended column. EI e 0.5 4 EI e 9
