Abstract

The problem of torsional stability of a circular cylinder made from a compressible nonlinearly elastic material is solved for finite perturbations. In contrast to the classical theory of bifurcation, an infinite sequence of steady states that bounds the domain of allowed initial perturbations is constructed. The applicability of the classical three-dimensional linear theory of stability is evaluated.
