Growth-induced axial buckling of a slender elastic filament embedded in an isotropic elastic matrix

We investigate the problem of an axially-loaded, isotropic, slender cylinder embedded in a soft, isotropic, outer elastic matrix. The cylinder undergoes uniform axial growth, whilst both the cylinder and surrounding elastic matrix are confined between two rigid plates, so that this growth results in...
