Restabilization in structures susceptible to localized buckling: An approximate method for the extended post-buckling regime
Localized buckling in structures has been extensively studied in the context of simple nonlinear models which capture the essence of the phenomenon near the lowest critical load. In this study we apply a non-periodic Rayleigh-Ritz procedure to track localizations into the far post-buckling regime where the structure regains stability after the initial destabilization. The results are compared against independent numerical solutions and good agreement is found.
