Hilltop buckling as the A and O in sensitivity analysis of the initial postbuckling behavior of elastic structures

The coincidence of a bifurcation point with a snap‐through point is called hilltop buckling. In this paper, it either serves as the starting point ‐ the ? ‐ or as the end ‐ the O ‐ in sensitivity analysis of the initial postbuckling behavior of elastic structures. It is shown that hilltop buckling...
