Question
Consider a prismatic straight beam of length L = π m, pinned at the two ends as shown in the figure. The beam has a square cross-section of side p = 6 mm. The Young’s modulus E = 200 GPa, and the coefficient of thermal expansion α = 3•10–6K–1. The minimum temperature rise required to cause Euler buckling of the beam is _____K.
