A semi-analytical approach based on the variational iteration method for static analysis of composite beams

Olga Doeva et al.

Summary: The 3D static deflection problem of composite beams subjected to loads is analyzed using the Variational Iteration Method (VIM), resulting in a system of coupled non homogeneous ordinary differential equations and a solution in the form of convergent series. Good agreement is observed between the results based on VIM and those of the exact solution and Chebyshev Collocation Method (CCM) for different layups and boundary conditions, showing the applicability and effectiveness of VIM for static analysis of composite beams.

Stress analysis of generally asymmetric non-prismatic beams subject to arbitrary loads

M. M. S. Vilar et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the stress field of non-prismatic beams with variable cross-section under general loading, proposing an analytical solution to recover the stress distribution. The new formulation effectively considers factors such as variable cross-section, internal forces, and beam geometry, enhancing the accuracy of the model.

Closed-form solutions for the coupled deflection of anisotropic Euler-Bernoulli composite beams with arbitrary boundary conditions

Pedram Khaneh Masjedi et al.

Summary: The fully anisotropic response of composite beams is crucial in various fields such as aeroelastic responses of helicopter rotor and wind turbine blades. This study aims to provide exact analytical solutions for the coupled deflection of Euler-Bernoulli composite beams, using two different approaches. The results show that the new field equations with four degrees of freedom successfully decouple the system of differential equations and allow for direct integration to derive closed-form analytical solutions. Furthermore, comparison with existing analytical solutions demonstrates excellent agreement and the potential for these exact solutions to serve as benchmark problems for assessing accuracy and convergence of various methods.

Efficient strong Unified Formulation for stress analysis of non-prismatic beam structures

S. O. Ojo et al.

Summary: The Unified Formulation (UF) is a powerful tool for efficient design of structural components, but its classical description limits its application to prismatic structures. A recent weak-form anisoparametric approach overcomes this limitation, but is computationally challenging. The proposed Strong-form Anisoparametric UF (SUF) offers an efficient computation of the UF stiffness matrix for non-prismatic structures, showing accuracy and computational efficiency compared to other methods.
