A microstructure-dependent Timoshenko beam model based on a modified couple stress theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a microstructure-dependent Timoshenko beam model is developed using a variational formulation, which is based on a modified couple stress theory and Hamilton's principle.

Dynamics of transversely vibrating beams using four engineering theories

TL;DR: In this article, the full development and analysis of four models for the transversely vibrating uniform beam are presented, including the Euler-Bernoulli, Rayleigh, shear and Timoshenko models.

Introduction to finite element vibration analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the finite element displacement method was used for the analysis of free vibration of plates and shells, and for the simulation of forced response and forced response analysis of rigid and flexible plates.

Microstructure-dependent couple stress theories of functionally graded beams

TL;DR: In this article, a microstructure-dependent nonlinear Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam theory was proposed to account for through-thickness power-law variation of a two-constituent material.

Shear coefficients for Timoshenko beam theory

TL;DR: The Timoshenko beam theory includes the effects of shear deformation and rotary inertia on the vibrations of slender beams as discussed by the authors, which has been the subject of much previous research.
