[hal-00855912, v1] A geometrically exact spatial beam finite element based on the fixed-pole approach
نویسنده
چکیده
A spatial geometrically exact finite element based on the fixed-pole approach of an arbitrary order is presented. In contrast to the original formulation by Bottasso and Borri, this formulation uses standard kinematic unknowns and is therefore combinable with standard finite elements. Preliminary results show that when updating displacements and rotations at integration points, this formulation may yield more accurate results.

Geometrically nonlinear analysis of axially functionally graded beams by using finite element method
The aim of this paper is to investigate geometrically nonlinear static analysis of axially functionally graded cantilever beam subjected to transversal non follower load. The considered problem is solved by finite element method with total Lagrangian kinematic approach. The material properties of the beam vary along the longitudinal direction according to the power law function. The finite elem...
متن کاملAn Efficient Finite Element Formulation Based on Deformation Approach for Bending of Functionally Graded Beams
Finite element formulations based generally on classical beam theories such as Euler-Bernoulli or Timoshenko. Sometimes, these two formulations could be problematic expressed in terms of restrictions of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, in case of thicker beams due to non-consideration of transverse shear; phenomenon that is known as shear locking characterized the Timoshenko beam theory, in case of...
متن کاملIntroducing the Logarithmic finite element method: a geometrically exact planar Bernoulli beam element
We propose a novel finite element formulation that significantly reduces the number of degrees of freedom necessary to obtain reasonably accurate approximations of the low-frequency component of the deformation in boundary-value problems. In contrast to the standard Ritz–Galerkin approach, the shape functions are defined on a Lie algebra—the logarithmic space—of the deformation function. We con...

This work focuses on finite element formulations for the accurate modeling and efficient simulation of the implicit dynamics of slender fiberor rod-like components and their contact interaction when being embedded in complex systems of fiber-based materials and structures. Recently, the authors have proposed a novel all-angle beam contact (ABC) formulation that combines the advantages of existi...

In this study, the effect of finite strain on bending of the geometrically nonlinear of micro laminated composite Euler-Bernoulli beam based on Modified Couple Stress Theory (MCST) is studied in thermal environment. The Green-Lagrange strain tensor according to finite strain assumption and the principle of minimum potential energy is applied to obtain governing equation of motion and boundary c...
