Abstract—This paper aims to investigate the dynamic
buckling problems of linear beam system with initial axial force
and uniform moment by the developed spline finite element
method, which is employed to obtain the dynamic stiffness
matrix. Second order effects of the axial force and moment are
considered. The moment-frequency interaction diagrams in
uniform axial force and moment are plotted. The effects of
warping rigidity, torsional rigidity, axial tension and
compression on moment buckling are investigated in detail. The
spline finite element method is proved to be very efficient for
the present problems and many interaction diagrams can be
plotted easily.
