Abstract:This paper is dedicated to present static behaviour of Reddy-Bickford laminated composite and sandwich beams subjected to various sets of boundary conditions which are simply supported (SS), clamped-simply supported (CS), clamped-clamped (CC) and clamped-free (CF) by using Ritz method. An analytical solution based on polynomial series including auixiliary functions which are used to satisfy the boundary conditions is developed to solve the studied problem. The polynomial shape functions for axial, transverse d… Show more
