Response characterization of multistable shallow domes with cosine-curved profile

TL;DR: In this paper, the multistable elastic behavior of a shallow dome with a cosine-curved profile is investigated and three types of response were recognized and discussed based on the force-and strain energy-displacement curves.

Geometry of escape and transition dynamics in the presence of dissipative and gyroscopic forces in two degree of freedom systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the geometry of escape across a saddle in some widely known physical systems with two degrees of freedom and established the criteria of escape providing both a methodology and results under the conceptual framework known as tube dynamics.

Global invariant manifolds delineating transition and escape dynamics in dissipative systems: an application to snap-through buckling

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply the concept of invariant manifolds to study the transition between potential wells in not only conservative systems, but more realistic dissipative systems, by solving respective proper boundary value problems.

Numerical modeling of static equilibria and bifurcations in bigons and bigon rings

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical framework combining several existing techniques to study mechanics of elastic networks consisting of thin strips is proposed, where each strip is modeled as a Kirchhoff rod, and the entire strip network is formulated as a two-point boundary value problem (BVP).

A group-theoretic approach to computational bifurcation problems with symmetry

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the exploitation of symmetry via group invariance also yields an efficient computational approach to global bifurcation problems, which leads to a drastic reduction in numerical effort in the determination of several global solution branches, and enables the accurate computation of numerous singular points.
