Rotational invariants in finite element formulation of three-dimensional beam theories
This paper introduces a new finite element formulation of the ‘geometrically exact finite-strain beam theory’. The formulation employs the generalized virtual work principle. In the resulting governing equations of the beam, the strain vectors are the only unknown functions. The consistency condition that the equilibrium and the constitutive internal force and moment vectors are equal, is enfor...
متن کاملThe quaternion-based three-dimensional beam theory
This paper presents the equations for the implementation of rotational quaternions in the geometrically exact three-dimensional beam theory. A new finite-element formulation is proposed in which the rotational quaternions are used for parametrization of rotations along the length of the beam. The formulation also satisfies the consistency condition that the equilibrium and the constitutive inte...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Finite Element
Numerical modeling of electromagnetic nondestructive testing problems has become in the last few years common enough to be considered an integral part of the engineering design practice. In particular, eddy current modeling activity has been on the increase because of the benefits afforded by such models and their relative simplicity and availability. This is certainly true for two dimensional ...
متن کاملOn the Corotational Beam Element Formulation in Large Deformation Analysis
This paper sheds more light on the co-rotational element formulation for beams with uniform cross-section. The co-rotational elements are commonly used in problems in which a structure undergoes a large deformation. In this study, the foregoing element obeys the Euler-Bernoulli beam assumptions. Unlike the formulations presented in the literature, in this paper, a number of local nodal coordina...
متن کاملFinite element formulation for the free vibration analysis of embedded double-walled carbon nanotubes based on nonlocal Timoshenko beam theory
The present paper is concerned with the free vibration analysis of double-walled carbon nanotubes embedded in an elastic medium and based on Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory. The effects of the transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia are included according to the Timoshenko beam theory. The governing equations of motion which are coupled with each other via the van der Waals interla...
