  1. Buckling - Wikipedia

    Buckled panels are still effective in carrying shear by diagonal tension. [1] In structural engineering, buckling is the sudden change in shape (deformation) of a structural component under load, such as …

  2. Buckling Definition - Intro to Civil Engineering Key Term | Fiveable

    Buckling is a failure mode that occurs when structural members experience excessive compressive stresses, leading to sudden lateral deflection and potential collapse.

  3. Buckling | Columns, Beams & Struts | Britannica

    Nov 14, 2025 · buckling, Mode of failure under compression of a structural component that is thin (see shell structure) or much longer than wide (e.g., post, column, leg bone). Leonhard Euler first worked …
