SummaryIt often happens that in a plane truss all joints are not transversely stiffened. If one joint of the compressed girder of a beam is free, the girder is liable to fail by buckling perpendicular to the plane of the truss, between the adjacent joints. The chart given here enables a rapid determination of the critical loading to be made. The compression and moment of inertia are assumed constant along the length of each bay, but may be different in the two bays.

In studying ion implanted semiconductors and fast neutron irradiated metals, the need for characterizing small dislocation loops having diameters of a few hundred angstrom units usually arises. The weak beam imaging method is a powerful technique for analyzing these loops. Because of the large reduction in stacking fault (SF) fringe spacing at large sg, this method allows for a rapid determination of whether the loop is faulted, and, hence, whether it is a perfect or a Frank partial loop. This method was first used by Bicknell to image small faulted loops in boron implanted silicon. He explained the fringe spacing by kinematical theory, i.e., ≃l/(Sg) in the fault fringe in depth oscillation. The fault image contrast formation mechanism is, however, really more complicated.
