Asymptotic bifurcation solutions for compressions of a clamped nonlinearly elastic rectangle: transition region and barrelling to a corner-like profile

arXiv:0903.3913

Abstract

Buckling and barrelling instabilities in the uniaxial compressions of an elastic rectangle have been studied by many authors under lubricated end conditions. However, in practice it is very difficult to realize such conditions due to friction. Here, we study the compressions of a two-dimensional nonlinearly elastic rectangle under clamped end conditions.
