Stability estimates for a twisted rod under terminal loads: a three-dimensional study
The stability of an inextensible unshearable elastic rod with quadratic strain energy density subject to end loads is considered. A self-contained proof in terms of local energy minimizers is presented and optimal bounds are obtained for the problem.
