INVESTIGATION OF CREEP BUCKLING OF COLUMNS AND PLATES. PART III: CREEP BUCKLING EXPERIMENTS WITH COLUMNS OF 2024-0 ALUMINUM ALLOY

Abstract

Experimental data for short tim nd creep buckling of Al alloy 2024-0 columns at 500 F were collected. Two slenderness ratios, 40 and 60, were tested each with simulated pinned and fixed ends. Compressive short time and compressive creep data for the Al alloy were collected. A technique, whereby end shortening and central deflection data are autographically recorded both during the period when the creep load was being applied and during creep, was used. It was possible to determine initial imperfections by the Southwell method for creep buckling. Data include initial imperfections as well as central deflection and end shortening data. Experimental relationships between applied stress and failure time are presented. (Author)
