According to Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the bending stiffness of a section of material is given by EI, where E is the elastic modulus of the material and I is the area moment of inertia. From: Biomaterials, 2019 About this pageSet alert ...
The exact bending stiffness matrix is developed for an arbitrary nonuniform beam including shear deformation. The current development is based upon Timoshenko's beam theory. The coefficients of the bending stiffness matrix require the evaluation of only three integrals. These coefficients are evaluated ...
Stiffnesses obtained from both methods agreed with each other to machine accuracy. Application of the developed theory is discussed with particular reference to an established algorithm. The influence of axial force, shear deformation and rotatory inertia on the natural frequencies of a bending-torsion...
In this investigation,the homogenization method and Timoshenko beam theory were used to derive the equivalent bending and shear stiffness of the periodic variable cross-section beam via ANSYS,which was based on the equivalence principle of boundary displacement and cross-section corner. An application ...
For large rotations and small strains these relations are EulerBernoulli beam theory where 13 The quantity bending stiffness. is the extensional stiffness, is the coupled extensional-bending stiffness, and is the For the situation where the beam has a uniform cross-section and no axial load, the...
Biomimetic scales provide a convenient template to tailor the bending stiffness of the underlying slender substrate due to their mutual sliding after engagement. Scale stiffness can therefore directly impact the substrate behavior, opening a potential avenue for substrate stiffness tunability. Here, we hav...

It is shown that the solutions within the gradient elasticity theory give classic beam bending stiffnesses and demonstrate the invalidity of the widespread results and estimates obtained in the past 15 years during study of scale effects within the gradient beam theories, according to which the ...
is based on Timoshenko beam theory. Shear deformation effects are included. This element is well-suited for linear, large rotation, and/or large strain nonlinear applications. BEAM189 includes stress stiffness terms, by default, in any analysis with NLGEOM,ON. The provided stress stiffness terms ...
a size-dependent continuum theory that can capture size effect is essential in the composite rotor blade model. Trapeze effect The trapeze effect is a coupling in beams between tension and torsion, resulting in an increase in effective torsional stiffness from axial tensile force [5]. To be acco...
