.... In this paper, a novel method is proposed to achieve multistability in conical structures by local cross-section modification. A conical multistable structure with varying cross section is designed based on this method. The finite element model considering the nonlinear large deformation mechanics and rubber...

... work of Goodier and Hetenyi ( 2 3 ). Finite element models have become accepted tools for the design of screw threads and the development of design codes for mechanical and structural applications ( 4 ). Implicit in the appropriateness of such analyses is sufficient discretization of the model...
