Buckling of a Nonlinearly Elastic Column: Variational Principles, Bifurcation and Asymptotics [PDF]
We study the equilibrium states of an elastic column subject to an end thrust. The column is modeled as an inextensible rod with a nonlinear moment-curvature equation. We bring various mathematical theories to bear on this problem; the calculus of variations, bifurcation theory, phase plane analysis, and singular perturbation theory for ordinary ...

On the bifurcation analysis of thin multilayer structures by the Asymptotic Numerical Method [PDF]
This paper focuses on the stability analysis of multilayer thin shells using the asymptotic numerical method (ANM) combined with Padé approximants. This technique is highly effective for solving nonlinear problems due to its high-order algorithm that ...

Controlling colloidal flow through a microfluidic Y-junction [PDF]
Microscopic particles flowing through narrow channels may accumulate near bifurcation points provoking flow reduction, clogging and ultimately chip breakage in a microfluidic device. Here we show that the full flow behavior of colloidal particles through

Asymmetric-bifurcation snapping, all-or-none motion of Venus flytrap [PDF]
The Venus flytrap is a carnivorous plant that catches insects by snapping rapidly and reopening slowly. To understand the mechanism underlying this asymmetrically reversible motion, a three-dimensional laser profiler was used to measure both static ...

Enhanced sensitivity and tunability of thermomechanical resonance near the buckling bifurcation [PDF]
Abstract The high susceptibility of ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) material resonators to force and temperature makes them ideal systems for sensing applications and exploring thermomechanical coupling. Although the dynamics of these systems at high stress has been thoroughly investigated, their behavior near the buckling transition has ...
