Buckling problems of thin elastic shells [PDF]
The article covers several mathematical problems relating to elastic stability of thin shells in view of inconsistencies that have been recently identified between the experimental data and the predictions based on the shallow- shell theory.

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 ...

Wrinkling prediction procedure in thin sheet metal forming processes with adaptive mesh refinement. Part 1: contact free wrinkling [PDF]
Buckling of structures with imperfections, quasi-buckling (QB), is studied. At the bifurcation load, these structures show a smooth transition into one of the stable postbuckling equilibrium states, instead of the traditional sudden change in deflection ...

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,
