Analytical Solutions for Functionally Graded Beams under Arbitrary Distributed Loads via the Symplectic Approach
A novel symplectic approach is employed in the analysis of homogenous and functionally graded beams subjected to arbitrary tractions on the lateral surfaces. Two models of functionally graded beams are heterogeneous in the sense that the material properties are exponential functions of the length an...
