Bifurcations in the optimal elastic foundation for a buckling column
Daniel Rayneau-Kirkhope, Robert Farr, K. Ding +1
We investigate the buckling under compression of a slender beam with a distributed lateral elastic support, for which there is an associated cost. For a given cost, we study the op…

Fractal space frames and metamaterials for high mechanical efficiency
R. S. Farr, Y. Mao
A solid slender beam of length , made from a material of Young's modulus and subject to a gentle compressive force , requires a volume of material proportional to $L^{3}f…
