P-Delta is a nonlinear phenomenon that results from the consideration of axial loads acting
on the deformed configuration of a member of the structure, usually a beam-column. This …

A structural analysis of framed structures using the finite element method considering both
the Bernoulli-Euler and the Timoshenko beam theories can be performed adopting cubic …

This study presents a unified three-dimensional mixed-element formulation using analytical
interpolation functions for the geometric nonlinear analysis of slender columns using one …

A simple three-dimensional Timoshenko frame element for large rotations is proposed for
the modelling of progressive collapse of structures. The element is formulated in a total …

The Linear Elements Structure Model, or LESM for short, is a user-friendly, free-to-use, and
opensource educational software for the structural analysis of models composed of linear …
