Abstract: The talk will provide a compendium of ’zero-stiffness’ structures, describing three classes of structures that remain in a neutral state of equilibrium, even while they undergo large (and clearly geometrically nonlinear) displacements, with part or all of each structure undergoing large (but elastic) deformations. The structures will not be abstract theoretical constructions, but real structures modelled using reasonable assumptions. Physical examples will be demonstrated.
