Exploring the design space of nonlinear shallow arches with generalised path-following

The classic snap-through problem of shallow arches is revisited using the so-called generalised path-following technique. Classical buckling theory is a popular tool for designing structures prone to instabilities, albeit with limited applicability as it assumes a linear pre-buckling state. While in...
