Objective of course

Determine the elastic limit of the balance of Applied mechanics, engineering, designing structures to provide security, in the absence of exact solutions to provide a good approximately solution.

Course Learning Output

• Basic concepts of stability is known and the general theory of elastic columns, eccentrically loaded columns, compressive strength is variable, the energy method, the method of successive approaches are expected to know the issues.

• After the completion of the course the students sufficient knowledge and skills on stability and application of scientific research on this subject can reach.
