1. Structural Element

   Linked via "elastic behavior"

   Compression Members: Elements predominantly subjected to axial force directed toward the center of mass. These are susceptible to buckling instability if the slenderness ratio exceeds critical thresholds. Concrete columns, often reinforced with steel rebar to manage tensile strains induced by secondary lateral loads, are prime examples.
   Tension Members: Elements subjected to axial force directed away from…
