Dynamic buckling of an inextensible elastic ring: Linear and nonlinear analyses
Ousmane Kodio, Alain Goriely, Dominic Vella
Slender elastic objects such as a column tend to buckle under loads. While static buckling is well understood as a bifurcation problem, the evolution of shapes during dynamic buckl…

Dynamic buckling of elastic rings in a soap film
Finn Box, Ousmane Kodio, Doireann O'Kiely +3
Dynamic buckling may occur when a load is rapidly applied to, or removed from, an elastic object at rest. In contrast to its static counterpart, dynamic buckling offers a wide rang…

Impact on floating thin elastic sheets: A mathematical model
Doireann O'Kiely, Finn Box, Ousmane Kodio +2
We investigate impact of a sphere onto a floating elastic sheet and the resulting formation and evolution of wrinkles in the sheet. Following impact, we observe a radially propagat…
