Abstract The stability characteristics of a cantilever beam, with and without an intermediate support, subjected to a dynamic terminal moment, is investigated. The moment is assumed to be proportional to the slope of a point along the length of the beam. The proportionally constant, which can be positive or negative, is varied to find the critical stability point. In the absence of intermediate support, stability is lost through divergence when the dynamic moment is proportional to the positive slope, and through flutter when the dynamic moment is proportional to the negative slope. In contrast, the nature of instability switches between divergence and flutter, and between different flutter instability modes while undergoing flutter, in the presence of an intermediate support.

Abstract The purpose of this informal paper is three-fold: First, filling a gap in the literature, we provide a (necessary and sufficient) principle of linearized stability for nonautonomous difference equations in Banach spaces based on the dichotomy spectrum. Second, complementing the above, we survey and exemplify an ambient nonautonomous and infinite-dimensional center manifold reduction, that is Pliss’s reduction principle suitable for critical stability situations. Third, these results are applied to integrodifference equations of Hammerstein- and Urysohn-type both in C- and Lp -spaces. Specific features of the nonautonomous case are underlined. Yet, for the simpler situation of periodic time-dependence even explicit computations are feasible.

Through the analysis of the collapse reasons of a large steel silo, results show that the main reasons for causing this accident are the design factors, containing horizontal pressure calculation, loads combination, critical stability stress calculation and so on. Temperature stress, storage mode and discharge method, initial imperfections of steel silos are the subordinate reasons and can not be ignored.
