The objective of this paper is thermo-mechanical bending of laminated composite and sandwich plates subjected to mechanical load and linearly varying through the thickness temperature field. Mathematical model, based on ...

The paper presents the simplified matrix stiffness method for analysis of composite and prestressed beams. The method is based on the previously developed "exact" analysis method that uses the mathematical theory of linear ...

The present research is focused on the linear analysis of a spatial Bernoulli-Euler beam. Metrics of the reference and deformed configurations are rigorously defined with respect to the convective coordinate frame of ...

The present study elucidates linear static analysis for plane beam structures using the isogeometric approach. A novel methodology for rotation-free analysis of an arbitrarily curved Bernoulli-Euler beam in the convective ...

This paper presents an experimental-numerical analysis of damage localization of concrete plate-like elements on the basis of hybrid approach. The proposed hybrid approach uses the fast discrete wavelet transform, energy ...

In the paper, a computational model for the transient response of laminated composite and sandwich plates with existing zones of partial delamination, subjected to dynamic pulse loading is proposed. Laminated composite and ...
