Stress Stiffening
Problem Description
[1] The beam is made of
steel and has a uniform
cross section of 10x10 mm.

This is the point with zero axial
force. On the right, the beam is
subject to tensile force. On the
left, the beam is subject to
compressive force.

The <Load
Multiplier> can be
viewed as a safety
factor. It predicts
that 203 times of
design load will
initiate a buckling.
The structure is
safe.
