In this paper we extend Kollár and Pluzsik’s thin-walled anisotropic composite beam theory to include multiple cells with open branches and booms, and present a finite element formulation utilizing the stiffness matrix obtained from this theory. To recover the 4 × 4 compliance matrix of a beam containing N closed cells, we solve an asymmetric system of 2N + 4 linear equations four times with unitary section loads and extract influence coefficients from the calculated strains. Finally, we compare 4 × 4 stiffness matrices of a multicelled beam using this method against matrices obtained using the finite element method to demonstrate accuracy. Similarly to its originating theory, the effects of shear deformation and restrained warping are assumed negligible.

Laminated Composite Beams

In this Paper, the analysis of simply supported laminated composite beam having uniformly distributed load is performed. The solutions obtained in the form of the displacements and stresses for different layered cross ply laminated composite simply supported beams subjected uniformly distributed to load. Different aspect ratio consider for different results in terms of displacement, bending stress and shear stresses. The shear stresses are calculated with the help of equilibrium equation and constitutive relationship. Using displacement field including trigonometric function of laminated composite beams are derived from virtual displacement principle. There are axial displacement, transverse displacement, bending stress and shear stresses. In addition, Euler-Bernoulli (ETB), First order shear deformation beam theory (FSDT), Higher order shear deformation beam theory (HSDT) and Hyperbolic shear deformation beam theory (HYSDT) solution have been made for comparison and better accuracy of solutions and results of static analyses of laminated composite beams for simply supported laminated composite beam.
