This paper presents numerical study about the influence of different types of configurations of composite material son the dynamic response of box curved beams.

The objective of this paper is the evaluation of uncertainty propagation associated to several parameters in the dynamics of magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) curved beams. These MEE structures can be employed as imbedded parts ...

Thin-walled curved beams are extensively used in engineering applications when requirements of weight saving are of primary importance. This is especially true when composite materials are used. For the analysis of isotropic ...

In this paper we perform a quantification of the uncertainty propagation of the dynamics of slender initially curved structures constructed with fiber reinforced composite materials. Depending on the manufacturing process, ...

This paper is devoted to study the behavior, in the range of linear viscoelasticity, of shear flexible thin-walled beam members constructed with composite laminated fiber-reinforced plastics. This work appeals to the ...

In this paper the dynamic and buckling features of slender structures with curved axis are addressed. A survey on the literature concerning mechanics of beams constructed with non-homogeneous materials or with functionally ...

Currently, the standard delamination tests established by ASTM (available for mode I and mix mode) are limited to unidirectional composites. Although some researchers have conducted delamination tests in woven composites, ...

The nonlinear planar response of a cantilever rota ting slender beam to a principal parametric resonance of its first bending mode is analyzed. The equation of motion is obtained in the form of an integro-partial differential ...

This paper presents a unified theory for the vibrational analysis of thin-walled composite beams (TWCB) with arbitrary planar axial curvature, variable cross section, and general composite material layup, allowing for the ...
