How do you define slenderness ratio?(a) Ratio of column’s effective length to c/s radius of gyration(b) Ratio of slender body width to the bluff body height(c) Ratio of lift to drag(d) Ratio of Thrust to weightI had been asked this question in semester exam.This question is from Structural-Analysis Fundamentals in chapter Structures and Loads of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) Ratio of column’s effective length to c/s radius of gyration

The explanation is: The ratio of column’s effective length to c/s radius of gyration can be termed as slenderness ratio. The effective length of the column is determined based on the end constraints such as PINNED JOINTS, FIXED ENDS etc.
