Could someone please elaborate on the procedure and how someone should go about it?

The end goal is to calculate the buckling load of the overall material. Given a specific list of materials and their elastic moduli, is it possible to mathematically set up a process to find the modulus of the overall structure? I have looked into the Rule of Mixtures, but I am not sure if it...

Given a rectangular prism that is composed of various horizontal layers made of different materials, how can one calculate the modulus of elasticity? Currently the materials used and their respective ratios have not been specified. We wish to determine this information using the results of...
