Nonlinear static and transient analysis of generally laminated beams

In this study two one-dimensional finite element formulations based on higher-order displacement models have been developed. Both theories account for geometric nonlinearities, a parabolic shear strain distribution through the thickness, and satisfy the shear stress free boundary conditions at the u...
