The quadratic finite element/strip with generalized degrees of freedom and their application

TL;DR: In this article, a quadratic finite element with generalized degrees of freedom (GDOF) and a finite strip with GDOF based on the principle that the local displacement fields of elements should be compatible with the global displacement field of the corresponding systems is presented.

Sensitiviy of a nanocantilever-based mass sensor

TL;DR: In this paper, the mass and position sensitivity of a polysilicon cantilever with different thickness, area, and spatial distribution is simulated using finite element analysis and it is found that for a uniform increase in gold coating thickness, torsional mode gives an order higher mass sensitivity than vertical bending and lateral bending modes.

Natural frequencies of a beam with varying section properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of shear deformation upon the natural frequencies of a beam with classical boundary conditions can be estimated within the limits of practical accuracy by using a simple formula similar to the one used for simply supported beams.

Some studies on the response of a tapered beam

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed study on the effect of different types of thickness profiles on the response of a beam was conducted and the results obtained for different thickness profiles are compared with those obtained for parallel beam.
