Slenderness ratio is the ratio of effective length to least radius of gyration.
Least radius of gyration is from,
I = Ak^2.
Where, I is least moment of inertia I.e., minimum of Ixx or Iyy.

Why Euler's formula is not applicable for short column? Please tell me.

In order to make the calculation of stresses due to torsion easy, why do we have to make the assumption that plane sections plane? Please clear me.

Euler's formula holds good only for long columns.
It is applicable when a column is slender and its failure is due to buckling, not material strength.
For short columns, failure usually occurs due to compressive stress, not buckling, so Euler's formula is invalid.

Slenderness ratio = L/K.
L = Effective length.
k = radius of gyration.
L = Effective length.
k = radius of gyration.

Euler's formula ie critical stress is inversely proportional to length of column. Hence larger the length lesser will be the defined critical stress. Also applicable only for columns having slenderness ratio (l/k) greater than 80.
