The strange mechanics of an elastic rod under null-resultant transverse loads
Davide Bigoni, Diego Misseroni, Andrea Piccolroaz
Two equal and opposite distributed dead loads are applied orthogonally to the axis of an elastic rod in its rectilinear reference configuration, one at the extrados and the other a…
Stabilization against gravity and self-tuning of an elastic variable-length rod through an oscillating sliding sleeve
Panagiotis Koutsogiannakis, Diego Misseroni, Davide Bigoni +1
An elastic rod, straight in its undeformed state, has a mass attached at one end and a variable length, due to a constraint at the other end by a frictionless sliding sleeve. The c…
Structures loaded with a force acting along a fixed straight line, or the "Reut's column problem"
Davide Bigoni, Diego Misseroni
An elastic double pendulum subject to a force acting along a fixed straight line, the so-called "Reut's column problem", is a structure exhibiting flutter and divergence instabilit…
Flutter and divergence instability in the Pfluger column: experimental evidence of the Ziegler destabilization paradox
Davide Bigoni, Oleg N. Kirillov, Diego Misseroni +2
Flutter instability in elastic structures subject to follower load, the most important cases being the famous Beck's and Pfluger's columns (two elastic rods in a cantilever configu…
Detecting singular weak-dissipation limit for flutter onset in reversible systems
Davide Bigoni, Oleg N. Kirillov, Diego Misseroni +2
A `flutter machine' is introduced for the investigation of a singular interface between the classical and reversible Hopf bifurcations that is theoretically predicted to be generic…
The destabilizing effect of external damping: Singular flutter boundary for the Pfluger column with vanishing external dissipation
Mirko Tommasini, Oleg N. Kirillov, Diego Misseroni +1
Elastic structures loaded by nonconservative positional forces are prone to instabilities induced by dissipation: it is well-known in fact that internal viscous damping destabilize…
The deformation of an elastic rod with a clamp sliding along a smooth and curved profile
D. Misseroni, G. Noselli, D. Zaccaria +1
The design of compliant mechanisms is crucial in several technologies and relies on the availability of solutions for nonlinear structural problems. One of these solutions is given…
