A vibrating column with a critical load exerted on it

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between critical load and forced vibration in a vibrating column. Participants question whether the critical load decreases due to the effects of forced vibration, with initial intuition suggesting a reduction. The conversation emphasizes the need for analytical methods to demonstrate this relationship. Clarification is sought regarding whether the critical load in question pertains to buckling. A mechanism for analysis is suggested as a starting point for further exploration.

I was wondering the critical load vary as a result of forced vibration?
Intuitionally, I thought the critical load reduced.
But how to show it analytically, Any idea?

Are you referring to the critical load for buckling? Why would the critical load be reduced? Once you have a mechanism in mind, you can start analyzing it.
 
Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below.

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
