The stability of a compressed rotating rod

The classical stability problem of a compressed hinged elastic rod rotating with constant angular velocity about the axis that passes through the hinges is considered. It is assumed that the compressive force is constant and the line of its action coincides with the axis of rotation of the rod. The stability of a solution of the nonlinear problem that describes deformation of the rod under the action of the compressive force and the distributed centrifugal load is studied within the framework of the stability theory of dynamic systems with distributed parameters. The buckling paramcters of the problem are determined. Calculation results are given.
