printer friendly pageAA 245: Stability of Structures
This course covers the fundamentals of buckling and stability of structures, using potential energy and direct equilibrium approaches. Structural stability theory has applications in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering. Topics include: buckling of columns; imperfection sensitivity; classification of instabilities into snap-through and bifurcations; elasto-plastic buckling; buckling of plates and shells; localization and wrinkling; post-buckling behavior.
