Abstract:Euler-Bernoulli (EB) and Timoshenko-Ehrenfest (TE) theories model simple beams under linear constraints. But even keeping these constraints, specific structural effects in real applications compromise the accuracy of the models, such as stress concentration due to force reactions on the support contacts or bucking, for example. Both EB and TE solutions assume planar cross sections and structural stability, and therefore do not address those particular effects; the interest in using them is to explore the condi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
