We start from the energetical expressions of dynamical torsion of beams in terms of angular and warping displacement and velocity. We derive the stiffness and two mass matrices including both secondary effects for torsion: the shear deformation due to nonuniform warping and the warping inertia. The suitability of these matrices for evaluation modified torsional frequencies is investigated in the case of thick, as well as thin-walled, cross section beams by comparison with analytical and experimental results.

Shear Deformable

A shear deformable hybrid finite element formulation is developed for the lateral-torsional buckling analysis of fiber-reinforced composite thin-walled members with open cross-section. The method is developed by using the Hellinger-Reissner functional. Comparison to the displacement-based formulations the current hybrid formulation has the advantage of incorporating the shear deformation effects easily by using the strain energy of the shear stress field without modifying the basic kinematic assumptions of the thin-walled beam theory. Numerical results are validated through comparisons with results based on other formulations presented in the literature. Examples illustrate the effects of shear deformations and stacking sequence of the composite layers in predicting bucking loads.
