Critical buckling loads of the perfect Hollomon's power-law columns

Abstract

In this work, we present analytic formulas for calculating the critical buckling states of some plastic axial columns of constant crosssections. The associated critical buckling loads are calculated by Eulertype analytic formulas and the associated deformed shapes are presented in terms of generalized trigonometric functions. The plasticity of the material is defined by the Hollomon's power-law equation. This is an extension of the Euler critical buckling loads of perfect elastic columns to perfect plastic columns. In particular, critical loads for perfect straight plastic columns with circular and rectangular cross-sections are calculated for a list of commonly used metals. Connections and comparisons to the classical result of the Euler-Engesser reduced-modulus loads are also presented.

Complex Dynamics and Statistics of 1-D Hamiltonian Lattices: Long Range Interactions and Supratransmission

“…As is well-known, the field of modeling complex materials has been expanding rapidly in recent years, with the aim of understanding the dynamical response of metallic structures used in mechanical engineering applications. In this regard, I have been studying recently with Dr. Kostas Kaloudis and Dr. Thomas Oikonomou [34]1-D Hamiltonian lattices of particles interacting via 1) graphene type interactions [28][29][30], 2) Hollomon's power-law of materials exhibiting "work hardening" [31][32][33]. Earlier studies have focused on the dynamics of single oscillators governed by suitable nonanalytic potentials describing the motion in the above two cases.…”

“…Assume a cantilevered beam (same boundary conditions as Case 1) has circular cross-section with varying radius. The moment of inertial can be computed by [17] I n = 2 √ πR n+3 n + 3…”

Using ANN to Estimate the Critical Buckling Load of Y Shaped Cross-Section Steel Columns

“…In 1744, the first studies on the instability of compressive structures were proposed by Euler. However, the Euler formula is only suitable for structures with large slenderness [7,8]. Later, Johnson's proposal allowed to find the unstable critical force for small-and medium-sized structures [9].…”
