Dynamic Analysis of Functionally Graded Timoshenko Beams in Thermal Environment Using a Higher-Order Hierarchical Beam Element
A higher-order finite beam element for free and forced vibration analysis of functionally graded Timoshenko beams in thermal environment is formulated by using hierarchical functions to interpolate the kinematic variables. The shear strain is constrained to constant to improve the efficiency of the...
