| Abstract: | The common computation for understanding the buckling of reinforcement bars is associated with a unilateral rigid foundation with a set of uniformly spaced spring supports. In this technical note we examine the related situation of a set of uniformly spaced supports that require a finite force to initiate the displacement of the support. |
