Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A column of length L is pinned at both ends. If the flexural rigidity EI is 3000 Nm² and the axial load P is applied, derive the expression for the critical load using eigenvalue analysis.
💡 Hint: Relate critical load expressions to their theoretical derivations and eigenvalues.
Question 2
Compare and contrast the stability analysis of a cantilever beam vs. a simply supported beam under axial loading in terms of eigenvalues and buckled shapes.
💡 Hint: Examine how support types influence buckling behavior and mode shapes.
