Abstract

Presented herein are exact stability criteria for Euler columns under intermediate and end concentrated axial loads. The stability criteria cover all combinations of classical boundary conditions, arbitrary location of the intermediate concentrated load, and ratios of the magnitude of the intermediate load to the end load. Also included is the buckling problem of a new class of Euler columns where one segment is in tension while the other segment in compression.
