Question

for this structure find the following.

1) general solution for buckled shape in EACH span
2) Boundary Conditions suffcient to solve the problem 

note: should derive diff equations for each span's buckled shape, general solutions should be in terms of a = sqrt(P/EI), x and L  (x is measured from B)

boundary conditions are for the slopes and deflections that will be able to suffciently determine the buckling load
