The Laboratoire de Mecanique des Solides, Ecole Polytechnique (LMS-X) and the College
International des Sciences de la Construction (ITBTP-CISCO) propose to organize, with the
cooperation of UNESCO, a seminar on BUCKLING of engineering structures. This seminar
aims at providing a review of up-to-date methods of analysis, their relevance to the design of
structures and at promoting a fruitful meeting between engineers and researchers working on
this subject.
The following topics will be dealt with:
0 Elastic buckling: development of energy method, buckling of shell and column; design of
cooling towers. . ,
0 Blastic buckling: theoretical and numerical analysis, interpretation of experiments, cyl-
indrical and spherical shells in the plastic domain. . .
0 Dynamic buckling; pressure loading; links with catastrophe theory. . .
