Slender structural systems susceptible to unstable buckling generally losestability at lower load levels than the linear buckling load of the perfect structure. This is mainly due to the geometric imperfections present in real structures. The objective of this work is to determine the integrity measures, together with the stability of the post-critical solutions of a mechanical system subject to unstable symmetrical buckling, Burtterfly-type bifurcation, using a discrete degree of freedom model. Uncertainties in the order of 10% will be considered in its deterministic parameters, to obtain lower and reliable limits for the project. The proposed uncertainty in the spring stiffness parameters does not change the type of bifurcation and the value of the critical load, only the value of the minimum post-critical of the bifurcation diagrams. The results showed the erosion of the attraction basin and the decrease of the factors of integrity, local and global, for the trivial solutions with the increase of the static load, for the investigated bifurcation. |
