Optimal design of a long and slender compressive strut
This article deals with the optimal design of long and slender compressivestruts. The main objective is to minimize the mass of the struts undercertain non-failure constraints and thus find the optimal material. We showthat the main failure mode of the struts is Euler buckling. The results clearlysh...
