Abstract
In this chapter, the static stability of rods is examined. The theory of static stability of curvilinear rods is developed for the case when a loss of stability may occur with respect to a new equilibrium state of the rod. In this state, the shape of the rod axis may differ significantly from its shape in the natural configuration. Much attention is given to the analysis of deformation of a rod subjected to loads of different types (dead forces, follower forces or their combinations).
