Abstract
Abstract In this work, an application of two noded beam finite element methodology, which is demonstrated in the previous research work for vibration analysis of beam with a flexible joint problem, has been further extended here to investigate the buckling behaviour of free–free beam subjected to an in-plane compressive load. Joint is modelled as rotational spring, where the rotational spring stiffness governs the behaviour of the flexible joint. Variation of first five non-dimensional buckling loads of free–free beam with reference to the joint location as well as joint stiffness parameters are briefly presented. It is understood that looseness of the joint can significantly influence the buckling behaviour of free–free beam and plays an important role in accurately determining the buckling behaviour of jointed beams subjected to an in-plane compressive loads.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Nonlinear Engineering aims to be a platform for sharing original research results in theoretical, experimental, practical, and applied nonlinear phenomena within engineering. It serves as a forum to exchange ideas and applications of nonlinear problems across various engineering disciplines. Articles are considered for publication if they explore nonlinearities in engineering systems, offering realistic mathematical modeling, utilizing nonlinearity for new designs, stabilizing systems, understanding system behavior through nonlinearity, optimizing systems based on nonlinear interactions, and developing algorithms to harness and leverage nonlinear elements.
