Helical buckling of thin rods: FE modelling
In this paper, we utilize the Finite Element (FE) method to model twisting of long thin rods and capture the bifurcation scenarios leading to heli- cal buckling and various further post-buckling states.

Dynamic buckling of an inextensible elastic ring: Linear and nonlinear analyses
Slender elastic objects such as a column tend to buckle under loads. While static buckling is well understood as a bifurcation problem, the evolution of shapes during dynamic buckling is much harder to study.

Numerical and Analytical Investigation of Stability of the Reinforced Plate
The work is aimed at the construction of an algorithm for studying the equilibrium states of a reinforced plate near critical points, using the first (cubic terms) nonlinear terms of the potential energy expansion.

Calculation of the Stability Index in Parameter-Dependent Calculus of Variations Problems: Buckling of a Twisted Elastic Strut [PDF]
We consider the problem of minimizing the energy of an inextensible elastic strut with length 1 subject to an imposed twist angle and force. In a standard calculus of variations approach, one first locates equilibria by solving the Euler--Lagrange ODE ...

Post-Buckling Behaviour of Steel Structures with Different Types of Imperfections
In this paper, the stability of steel members with a complex initial geometrical imperfection pattern are analysed. This issue is extremely important in the case of slender structures, characterised by multiple close critical loads and modal interactions,
