On the Development of a Modified Timoshenko Beam Element for the Bending Analysis of Functionally Graded Beams

This study examines the static bending behavior of functionally graded beams using a newly developed modified Timoshenko beam element. The mixed finite element formulation and Timoshenko beam theory serve as the foundation for the formulation of the proposed beam element. There are two nodes and two...
