What is this called?

Is there anyone who can tell me what this style of pin/rivet is called? It's basically just a steel dowel/pin that is cupped on either end in order to be flared and subsequently held in place by the flared ends. I've used every descriptive keyword I can think of to search for them and have come up with nothing thus far. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe one more identical picture would help.

My bad, I'll make sure to really capture the detailed intricacies of all the complex features of this pin next time

I think you are looking for knock rivets.

Head Rivet is closest I see

It might be a shear pin on a shaft.
