Numerical spring models for behavioral simulation of MEMS inertial sensors
TL;DR: In this paper, a procedure for computing the sprint stiffness for any single-chain configuration of beams and a translator which converts beam-based schematic representation of inertial sensor to higher-level behavioral representation are implemented.

The Exact Two-Node Timoshenko Beam Finite Element Using Analytical Bending and Shear Rotation Interdependent Shape Functions
TL;DR: In this paper, the exact two-node Timoshenko beam finite element is formulated using a new model for representing beam rotation in a shear deformable beam, and an exact relationship between bending rotation and shear rotation is achieved using an analytical bending and shearing rotation interdependent shape functions obtained from a consideration of the asymmetrical beam flexural mode.

A local–global FE model for nonlinear analysis of column-supported shells of revolution
TL;DR: In this article, a local-global finite element model suitable for the analysis of column-supported shells of revolution is presented, which combines axisymmetric shell elements, general shell elements and column elements.

Dynamic analysis of spatial beam-like lattice girders
Jong-Shyong Wu,Jye-Ming Chen +1 more
TL;DR: A structural simplification method that can save computer time and space and achieve reasonable accuracy for solving the dynamic problem of spatial beam-like lattice girders was studied in this article, where the recovery expressions for determining the nodal displacements and nodal forces of each member of the original spatial lattice girder from the simplified equivalent beam were derived.

Justín Murín,Vladimír Goga,Mehdi Aminbaghai,Juraj Hrabovsky,Tibor Sedlár,Herbert A. Mang,Herbert A. Mang +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of experimental measurements and modelling of torsional warping free vibrations of beams with rectangular hollow cross-sections are compared with results from a semi-analytical method, proposed by the authors, and from Finite Element (FE) computations by means of a standard commercial code.
