The present study is concerned with the vibration analysis of cross-ply laminated beams subjected to different sets of boundary conditions. The analysis is based on a three-degree …
A multi-layered shell formulation is developed based on a layerwise deformation theory (Reddy, 2004) within the framework of isogeometric analysis (IGA). IGA utilizes Non-Uniform …
The engineering community generally accepts that there exists only a small set of closed- form solutions for simple cases of bars, beams, columns, and plates. Despite the advances …
This article is divided into two main sections, the focus of the first is to develop a finite element model using the in-house MATLAB codes, implementing the sinusoidal shear …
