Abstract
The elastic Euler buckling of an inextensible column is confined in a plane, and subject to fixed end displacement, in the presence of rigid, frictionless side-walls which constrain overall lateral displacements. The whole deflection is divided into some typical columns because of the symmetry. The governing equations of constrained buckling mode and deflection about axial load are deduced, based on linearized differential equation of beam. Point and line contact models are introduced to describe the behavior of the column in constrained buckling process, including load capacity, buckling wave and reaction force. The analysis on the deflection of column is helpful to the research about possible post-buckling paths.
