I have a problem visualising specified displacements from a modal/buckling analysis.
Postbuckling analysis and its application to stretchable electronics
Dear all,
I would like to recommand a paper on "Postbuckling analysis and its application to stretchable electronics"。 Please find enclosed paper which is published on Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids Vol. 60 (2012) 487–508.
An atomistic-based foliation model for multilayer graphene materials and nanotubes
The mechanical behavior of mono- and multi- layered graphene and carbon nanotube (CNT) systems has attracted great attention over the last decade because of their importance in nano-science and nanotechnology.
A very slender hollow column subjected to compression
Hi, everyone, my friend asks me whether it is possible to: construct a extremely slender hollow column of 100 m long and less than 1 m* 1 m in cross-section dimension, which can withstand 10 ton compression force from the two ends without buckling/failure. The material is not fixed.
With such a large length-to-diameter (hollow section) ratio, intuitively, I think it is impossible to withstand the compression with such a slender column.But I am not very sure.
Your comments are very much appreciated!
