Sommario

Per il problema della trave elastica su fondazione elastica unilaterale assialmente caricata si prova l'esistenza del carico critico e se ne dà l'espressione.

Summary

We analyze the problem of the axially loaded elastic beam on a one-sided elastic foundation. The existence of the critical load is proved and its expression is given.
