Bifurcation of locally buckled point symmetric columns—Analytical developments
AbstractThe paper derives the differential equations for the overall bifurcation of locally buckled point-symmetric columns. It is shown that flexural buckling about the minor and major principal axes are coupled in a locally buckled point-symmetric column whereas the buckling modes are uncoupled in a non-locally buckled column. The governing equations are solved for simply supported and fixed-ended columns and applied to Z-sections. Overall bifurcation curves are obtained for five Z-sections with increasingly slender flanges. It is shown that local buckling reduces the elastic torsional buckling load more so than the flexural buckling load for Z-sections, and that local buckling can cause a mode switch from the flexural to the torsional mode in Z-sections with very slender flanges.
