Abstract

This research work is aimed at evaluating, as well as formulating the peculiar Total Potential Energy Functional (TPEF) for a Mono Symmetric Single (MSS) cell Thin -walled Box Column (TWBC). It is one of the peculiar TPEF which is a follow up of the formulation of the general/governing TPEF for TWBC by Nwachukwu and others (2017). For the cross ? section under consideration, the cross ?sectional properties are evaluated first to obtain the cross-sectional areas and moment of inertia. This is followed by the formulation of the TPEF for the cross- sections for different boundary conditions. The formulated Energy Functional Equations support the stability analysis of a MSS cell thin-walled box (closed) column cross-section using Raleigh - Ritz Method (RRM) .The Raleigh- Ritz based formulated TPEF equations are found suitable, handy and simple to be used in the Flexural(F) , Flexural- Torsional(FT) and Flexural- Torsional- Distortional(FTD) buckling/stability analysis of MSS cell TWBC cross-section where data obtained (critical bulking loads) will be compared with the works of other authors in subsequent works.
