Safety Issues in Buckling of Steel Structures by Improving Accuracy of Historical Methods

Buckling of structural elements is a phenomenon that has great consequences on the bearing capacity of structures. Historically, there have been serious buckling-related structural accidents that have resulted in loss of human lives and high material costs. In this article, an attempt is made to per...

description Buckling of structural elements is a phenomenon that has great consequences on the bearing capacity of structures.
