The following assumptions are made while deriving Euler's formula: [3] The material of the column is homogeneous and isotropic. The compressive load on the column is axial only. The column is free from initial stress. The weight of the column is neglected. The column is initially straight (no eccentricity of the axial load).

The theory of the behavior of columns was investigated in 1757 by mathematician Leonhard Euler. He derived the formula, termed Euler's critical load, that gives the maximum axial load that a long, slender, ideal column can carry without buckling. An ideal column is one that is: perfectly straight; made of a homogeneous material; free from ...
Euler's number e corresponds to shaded area equal to 1, introduced in chapter VII. Introductio in analysin infinitorum (Latin: [1] Introduction to the Analysis of the Infinite) is a two-volume work by Leonhard Euler which lays the foundations of mathematical analysis.
Graph of Johnson's parabola (plotted in red) against Euler's formula, with the transition point indicated. The area above the curve indicates failure. The Johnson parabola creates a new region of failure. In structural engineering, Johnson's parabolic formula is an empirically based equation for calculating the critical buckling stress of a column.
A column can buckle due to its own weight with no other direct forces acting on it, in a failure mode called self-buckling.In conventional column buckling problems, the self-weight is often neglected since it is assumed to be small when compared to the applied axial loads.
Elastica theory is an example of bifurcation theory. For most boundary conditions several solutions exist simultaneously. When small deflections of a structure are to be analyzed, elastica theory is not required and an approximate solution may be found using the simpler linear elasticity theory or (for 1-dimensional components) beam theory.
Graph Theory, 1736–1936 is a book in the history of mathematics on graph theory. It focuses on the foundational documents of the field, beginning with the 1736 paper of Leonhard Euler on the Seven Bridges of Königsberg and ending with the first textbook on the subject, published in 1936 by Dénes Kőnig .
