A LINEARIZED TIMOSHENKO BEAM THEORY IN FINITE DISPLACEMENTS

open access: yesDoboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 1985
A linearized finite displacement theory of the Timoshenko beam is formulated as the counterpart to so-called beam-column theory of the Bernoulli-Euler beam. The corresponding stiffness equation is derived in a useful form for practical applications. Both theory and stiffness equation result in the same buckling load as the Engesser formula which has ...

From Origami to Bistable and Laminate Structures: A Review for Multifunctional Applications from Structural Perspective of Shape‐Changing Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review explores how shape‐changing structures—origami, bistable, and laminate structures—enable multifunctionality in soft robotics and metamaterials. Starting from structural design, it examines core principles, real‐world applications, and ongoing challenges.

Effective Material Stiffness in Curved Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
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.

ON “A CHECK ON THE ACCURACY OF TIMOSHENKO'S BEAM THEORY” [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Damage identification on spatial Timoshenko arches by means of genetic algorithms

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper a procedure for the dynamic identification of damage in spatial Timoshenko arches is presented. The proposed approach is based on the calculation of an arbitrary number of exact eigen-properties of a damaged spatial arch by means of the ...

Design and Development of an Accessible Clip Gauge Extensometer for CMOD Measurement in Fracture Mechanics

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
A low‐cost clip gauge extensometer for crack mouth opening displacement was developed from accessible procedures and materials. Accuracy and repeatability comparable to commercial devices were demonstrated in calibration and fracture tests, enabling reliable measurement in CT specimens for resource‐constrained laboratories.
