Leading young scientists, many holding prestigious Royal Society Research Fellowships, describe their research and give their visions of the future. Re-written in a popular and well illustrated style, the articles are derived from scholarly and autho

We present a new instability theorem which yields stability predictions for any multi-degree-of-freedom elastic system subjected to two or more loads. Predictions are based solely on the form of the equilibrium surfaces in the space of loads and thei

The helical buckling and post-buckling of an elastic rod within a cylindrical casing arises in many disciplines, but is particularly important in the petroleum industry. Here, a drill-string, subjected to an end twisting moment combined with axial te

Intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of two N-alkenylnitrones are studied by means of density functional theory calculations. Cycloaddition of an acyclic 4-hexenylnitrone led to the expected isoxazolidine in 46% yield, but a 4-cycloheptenylnitro

Dynamically stable periodic rotations of a driven pendulum provide a unique mechanism for generating a uniform rotation from bounded excitations. This paper studies the effects of a small ellipticity of the driving, perturbing the classical parametri

This paper reviews some examples of bifurcation in low-order, periodically driven dynamical systems. The generic loss of stability is a key component in dynamical systems theory, and provides a central pillar in assessing qualitative changes in syste

Taking the accurate theoretical solutions of Coleman and Swigon for a DNA plasmid in a plectonemic state under imposed link and responsive writhe, we examine in detail the working of the two types of cutting enzyme (topoisomerase Type 1 and topoisome

We give the results of large deflection experiments involving the bending and twisting of 1 mm diameter nickel-titanium alloy rods, up to 2 m in length. These results are compared to calculations based on the Cosserat theory of rods. We present detai

We show how an energy analysis can be used to derive the equilibrium equations and boundary conditions for an end-loaded variable ply much more efficiently than in previous works. Numerical results are then presented for a clamped balanced ply approa
