Distortional buckling of composite thin-walled columns of a box-type cross section with diaphragms

Distortional buckling of axially compressed columns of box-like composite cross sections with andwithout internal diaphragms is investigated in the framework of one-dimensional theory. The channel membersare composed of unidirectional fibre-reinforced laminate. Two approaches to the member orthotropic materialare applied: homogenization based on the theory of mixture and periodicity cells, and homogenization basedon the Voigt–Reuss hypothesis. The principle of stationary total potential energy is applied to derive thegoverning differential equation. The obtained buckling stress is valid in the linear elastic range of columnmaterial behaviour. Numerical examples address simply supported columns, and analytical critical stressformulas are derived. The analytical and FEM solutions are compared, and sufficient accuracy of the resultsis observed.
