Lecture

Beam Buckling: Euler's Formula

Description

This lecture covers the concept of beam buckling, focusing on Euler buckling and the critical load for beam instability. It explains the different modes of buckling and the formula for deflection in buckling. The instructor discusses the effect of eccentricity on beam behavior and the maximum stress in a column before buckling. The lecture also addresses the most efficient design for a column under axial load, considering different support conditions and safety factors.
