Mode Coarsening or Fracture: Energy Transfer Mechanisms in Dynamic Buckling of Rods

© 2021 American Physical Society. We present results of a hybrid experimental, theoretical, and simulation-based investigation of the postbuckling behavior of thin elastic rods axially impacted by a projectile. We find a new postbuckling mechanism: mode coarsening. Much akin to inverse energy cascad...
