Buckling of an axially compressed imperfect I-beam

From the same paper as the previous slide:

Dominik Schillinger writes about this slide:

"Snapshots from the deformation history of a random I-beam sample under axial compression. The critical buckling mode evolves from the pre-buckling shape, which is determined by the random geometric imperfection profile. Note that in most plots the deformation is amplified by a factor δ."
