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…

Homogenization of architected materials incorporating shearable beams

Matteo Franzoi, Davide Bigoni, Andrea Piccolroaz

Two-dimensional architected materials are often realized as periodic grids of elastic beams. Conventional homogenization methods represent these structures as equivalent elastic so…

Material instability and subsequent restabilization from homogenization of periodic elastic lattices

Davide Bigoni, Andrea Piccolroaz

Two classes of non-linear elastic materials are derived via two-dimensional homogenization. These materials are equivalent to a periodic grid of axially-deformable and axially-prel…

Effects of prestress in the coating of an elastic disk

Matteo Gaibotti, Sofia G. Mogilevskaya, Andrea Piccolroaz +1

An elastic disk is coated with an elastic rod, uniformly prestressed with a tensile or compressive axial force. The prestress state is assumed to be induced by three different mode…

Bifurcations of an elastic disc coated with an elastic inextensible rod

Matteo Gaibotti, Sonia G. Mogilevskaya, Andrea Piccolroaz +1

An analytical solution is derived for the bifurcations of an elastic disc that is constrained on the boundary with an isoperimetric Cosserat coating. The latter is treated as an el…

Bimodal buckling governs human fingers luxation

Massimiliano Fraldi, Stefania Palumbo, Arsenio Cutolo +2

Equilibrium bifurcation in natural systems can sometimes be explained as a route to stress shielding for preventing failure. Although compressive buckling has been known for a long…
