The paper presents the application of the new stiffener element with seven degrees of freedom per node and the subsequent application in determining frequencies, mode shapes and buckling loads of different stiffened panels. In structural modelling, the stiffener and the plate/shell are treated as separate elements where the displacement compatibility transformation between the seven and six degrees of freedom nodes of these two types of elements takes into account the torsion–flexural coupling in the stiffener and the eccentricity of internal (contact) forces between the beam–plate/shell parts. The model becomes considerably more flexible due to this coupling technique. The development of the stiffener is based on a general beam theory, which includes the constraint torsional warping effect and the second-order terms of finite rotations. Numerical tests are presented to demonstrate the importance of torsion warping. As part of the validation of the results, complete shell and the usual six degrees of freedom per node shell–beam finite element analyses were made for stiffened panels. |
