Composite Beam-Columns with Interlayer Slip : Exact Analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the axial loads acting on the composite elements are assumed to be proportioned in accordance with their relative axial stiffnesses so that their resultant acts at the centroid of the transformed cross-sectional area of the fully composite member.

Flexural behaviour of pre-cast concrete sandwich composite panel – Experimental and theoretical investigations
TL;DR: In this paper, the structural behavior of precast concrete sandwich panels (PCSP) under flexure is studied both experimentally and theoretically, and the effect of steel shear connector's stiffness on the ultimate strength and the compositeness of the panels is investigated.
