In this paper, we present an algorithm for the solution of the von Karman equations of elasticity theory and related problems. Our method of successive reconditioning is able to avoid convergence problems at any ratio of the nonlinear…
A thin flat rectangular plate supported on its edges and subjected to in-plane loading exhibits stable post-buckling behaviour. However, the introduction of a nonlinear (softening) elastic foundation may cause the response to become…
This article investigates the large deflection and post-buckling of composite plates by employing the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF). As a consequence, the geometrically nonlinear governing equations and the relevant incremental…
Euler buckling epitomises mechanical instabilities: An inextensible straight elastic line buckles under compression when the compressive force reaches a critical value $F_\ast>0$. Here, we extend this classical, planar instability to the…
The large deflection of a circular thin plate under uniform external pressure is a classic problem in solid mechanics, dated back to Von K{\'a}rm{\'a}n \cite{Karman}. {This problem is reconsidered in this paper using an analytic…
We consider the axial compression of a thin sheet wrapped around a rigid cylindrical substrate. In contrast to the wrinkling-to-fold transitions exhibited in similar systems, we find that the sheet always buckles into a single symmetric…
We examine the buckling shape and critical compression of confined inhomogeneous composite sheets lying on a liquid foundation. The buckling modes are controlled by the bending stiffness of the sheet, the density of the substrate, and the…
We investigate buckling of soft elastic capsules under negative pressure or for reduced capsule volume. Based on nonlinear shell theory and the assumption of a hyperelastic capsule membrane, shape equations for axisymmetric and initially…
A circular von Karman plate is considered bonded at its boundary to a circular Kirchhoff rod via a hinge like junction. There is a mismatch of dimension between the rod and the plate boundary in their respective stress free configurations.…
A dielectric elastomer whose edges are held fixed will buckle, given sufficient applied voltage, resulting in a nontrivial out-of-plane deformation. We study this situation numerically using a nonlinear elastic model which decouples two of…
The weighted extended B-spline method [Hoellig (2003)] is applied to bending and buckling problems of plates with different shapes and stiffener arrangements. The discrete equations are obtained from the energy contributions of the…
The properties of a hinged floating elastic sheet of finite length under compression are considered. Numerical continuation is used to compute spatially localized buckled states with many spatially localized folds. Both symmetric and…
Post buckling problem of a large deformed beam is analyzed using canonical dual finite element method (CD-FEM). The feature of this method is to choose correctly the canonical dual stress so that the original non-convex potential energy…
Columnar buckling is a ubiquitous phenomenon that occurs in both living things and man-made objects, regardless of the length scale ranging from macroscopic to nanometric structures. In general, analyzing the post-buckling behavior of a…
Wrinkling of an inextensible elastic lining of an inner-lined tube under imposed pressure is considered. A simple equation modeling the elastic properties of the lining, the pressure, and the soft-substrate forces is derived. This equation…
In this work, we present analytic formulas for calculating the critical buckling states of some plastic axial columns of constant cross-sections. The associated critical buckling loads are calculated by Euler-type analytic formulas and the…
In view of the fundamental distinction between the force-controlled model and the displacement-controlled model in buckling problems of structures and the complexity of the asymptotic post-buckling analysis traditionally based on the…
Thin sheets that are forced at their boundaries develop a variety of shapes aimed at minimising elastic energy by curving spontaneously in ways that break the symmetry of the sheet and the forcing. Characterising such buckling generally…
In this paper, the homotopy analysis method (HAM) is successfully applied to solve the Von Karman's plate equations in the integral form for a circular plate with the clamped boundary under an arbitrary uniform external pressure. Two…
The critical buckling characteristics of hydrostatically pressurized complete spherical shells filled with an elastic medium are demonstrated. A model based on small deflection thin shell theory, the equations of which are solved in…
