I have multiple steel tubes with flanged ends, all bolted together. How do I analyze 2 or 3 of these in buckling? What process do I take? I am kinda lost...any help?

Thank you!

You're probably better off in the Structural Engineering Other Topics (forum507) section. But I've always been taught that the flanges are just as strong or stronger than the pipe, So I would just take the total length and check against the pipe section properties.
