Abstract
We consider the bifurcation problem for three-dimensional isotropic, incompressible elastic plates subjected to a combined flexure and axial compression. The compressive loading being along the axis of the right circular cylinder formed by the flexure. Some limited analytical results and more comprehensive numerical results are presented for Neo–Hookean materials. Firstly, we give basic results for a plate subjected to pure flexure and then we show how a pure bending mode and a buckling mode due to axial compression can interact.
