Elastic Instability of Members Having Sections Common in Aircraft Construction

"Two fundamental problems of elastic stability are discussed in this report. In part one formulas are given for calculating the critical stress at which a thin, outstanding flange of a compression member will either wrinkle into several waves or form into a single half wave and twist the member about its longitudinal axis. In part two the lateral buckling of beams is discussed" (p. 373).
