Static and dynamic stability results for a class of three-dimensional configurations of Kirchhoff elastic rods
We analyze the dynamical stability of a naturally straight, inextensible and unshearable elastic rod, under tension and controlled end rotation, within the Kirchhoff model in three dimensions. The cases of clamped boundary conditions and isoperimetric constraints are treated separately. We obtain ex...
