Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials produced by pultrusion technique
attract the attention of researchers due to their superior properties. Limited studies are …

This study presents a 4 node, 11 DOF/node plate element based on higher order shear
deformation theory for lamina composite plates. The theory accounts for parabolic …

In this paper, mixed finite element (MFEM) equations which are based on a functional are
obtained by using the Gâteaux differential (GD) for laminated composite beams. Higher …

The main objective of the present work is to give the systematic way for derivation of
Kirchhoff plate‐elastic foundation interaction by mixed‐type formulation using the Gâteaux …

The quasi‐static and dynamic responses of a linear viscoelastic Timoshenko beam on
Winkler foundation are studied numerically by using the hybrid Laplace–Carson and finite …

In mixed finite element formulation three different methods:(1) Hellinger-Reissner principle
(HR);(2) Hu–Washizu principle (HW);(3) Gâteaux Differential Method (GDM), are widely …

In this study, helical beams with variable cross-section under arbitrary loading are analysed
by finite elements. All types of boundary conditions can be easily taken into account. With …
