A geometric nonlinear finite element formulation for piezothermoelastic composite laminates using first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is presented to solve mechanically and self-strain loaded smart composite plate buckling problems. Green–L

This first in a 2-part series on the John A. Roebling suspension bridge (1867) over the Ohio River is an analytical investigation, whereas Part II focuses on the experimental investigation of the bridge. The primary objectives of the investigation ar

This is the second part of a two-part paper on the evaluation of the historic Roebling suspension bridge using dynamic-analysis techniques. Dynamic properties are determined using ambient field testing under natural excitation. The finite-element (FE

An element template methodology is presented to solve composite plate problems using a serendipity hierarchical finite element implementation of Reddy's three-dimensional layerwise theory (1987). This methodology reduces the computational requirement

In general, the progressive failure analysis of space truss systems can only be adequately evaluated with both material and geometric nonlinearities considered. This paper utilizes constitutive relationships to provide the fundamental modeling of ela

A finite-element formulation for modeling flexible connection behavior in space frames composed of thin-walled members is presented. The finite-element model is based on a distributed linear spring representation over the physical contact area of the

The elastic stability (bifurcation) response of space frames, including warping deformation and flexible (semi-rigid) connections, is considered. Calculation of the elastic stability load is based on a linear eigenvalue analysis. A parametric study o
