Exploiting dynamic bifurcation in elastic ribbons for mode skipping and selection

In this paper, we systematically study the dynamic snap-through behavior of a pre-deformed elastic ribbon by combining theoretical analysis, discrete numerical simulations, and experiments. By rotating one of its clamped ends with controlled angular speed, we observe two snap-through transition p...
