The article is devoted to the stability of the polymer rods variable stiffness with the initial imperfec-tions and the development of creep deformation. The distinctive feature of the paper is a variable stiffness of the cross section and the use of fixing all, "seal-hinge" "seal, seal", "seal-free edge."

Keywords: stability of rods, creep, highly elastic deformation, polymeric materials, coupling equation of Maxwell-Gurevich
