Unboundedness of Solutions of Timoshenko Beam Equations with Damping and Forcing Terms
International Journal of Differential Equations, 2013 Timoshenko beam equations with external damping and internal damping terms and forcing terms are investigated, and boundary conditions (end conditions) to be considered are hinged ends (pinned ends), hinged-sliding ends, and sliding ends.

Comparative Spectral Analysis of Flexible Structure Models: the Euler-Bernoulli Beam model, the Rayleigh Beam model, and the Timoshenko Beam Model [PDF]
, 2017 We derive herein approximate spectra for three dierent models of transversely vibrating, beams. Each model consists of a system of partial dierential equations (PDEs) with various, boundary conditions.

Least-squares Smoothed Shape Functions for Constructing Field-Consistent Timoshenko Beam Elements
Civil Engineering DimensionThis paper presents an approach for constructing field-consistent Timoshenko beam elements using least-squares smoothed (LSS) shape functions. The variational basis for shear strain redistribution is thoroughly explained, leading to the derivation of ...

ON “A CHECK ON THE ACCURACY OF TIMOSHENKO'S BEAM THEORY” [PDF]
Journal of Sound and Vibration, 2002 In a recent article, Rneton (1) presented a comparison between the standing wave natural frequency predictions of Timoshenko beam theory (TBT) for a long beam of thin rectangular cross-section, when the flexural mode is sinusoidal in the axial co-ordinate x, and those of a plane stress elastodynamic solution; the latter may be regarded as the exact ...

Effective Material Stiffness in Curved Actuators
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A new actuator effective material stiffness measurement method is created. It produces a new metric called shape actuation modulus with the potential to help design actuators. This method shows that the smaller the curvature of hinge‐shaped actuators, the stiffer they are.
