Nonlinear Static Stability of Imperfect Bio-Inspired Helicoidal Composite Beams
The objective of this manuscript is to develop, for the first time, a mathematical model for the prediction of buckling, postbuckling, and nonlinear bending of imperfect bio-inspired helicoidal composite beams with nonlinear rotation angle.

Elastocapillary instability under partial wetting conditions: bending versus buckling [PDF]
The elastocapillary instability of a flexible plate plunged in a liquid bath is analysed theoretically. We show that the plate can bend due to two separate destabilizing mechanisms, when the liquid is partially wetting the solid.

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 ...

Catastrophe Models for Cognitive Workload and Fatigue [PDF]
We reconceptualised several problems concerning the measurement of cognitive workload – fixed versus variable limits on channel capacity, work volume versus time pressure, adaptive strategies, resources demanded by tasks when performed simultaneously ...

Buckling of Spherical Capsules
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 spherical ...

Nonlinear dynamic intertwining of rods with self-contact [PDF]
Twisted marine cables on the sea floor can form highly contorted three-dimensional loops that resemble tangles. Such tangles or hockles are topologically equivalent to the plectomenes that form in supercoiled DNA molecules. The dynamic evolution of these

Adoption of integrated cattle and oil palm farming system in Malaysia [PDF]
Malaysian government had encouraged the adoption of integrated cattle and oil palm farming system (ICOFS) since the year 1998. This is due to large areas of land suitable for ICOFS in Malaysia that can be well utilised. Rising up the participation in
