to trace the stability boundaries of two-parameter elastic structures. The

proposed procedure can find a set of critical points, both limit and bifurcation ones, via a modified Newton’s method. In the authors’ formulation, the residual force is set...

Ionic liquids with BF4 anion have small surface entropies and show high critical point temperatures, which decreases with the alkyl chain length. The cation-anion interaction energy, calculated by quantum chemical method, has been correlated...

Four systematic approaches are developed in the context of the indirect methods for

analyzing the nonlinear prebuckling behavior. In this study, an appropriate test function

to monitor bypassing of the critical points is utilized...

This paper investigates the analytical solution to eight individual trusses. They are

two- and three-dimensional structures. In addition, explicit expressions for the tangent

stiffness matrix, critical loads, ...
