Abstract

The critical precollision velocity of a two-step rod of finite length when it collides with a rigid obstacle, leading to a loss of its stability, is calculated by an analytical solution of the wave equation using d’Alembert's method. The critical force and velocity are calculated using Euler's formula for a static load.
