Abstract

Abstract

A theoretical method for static analysis of naturally curved and twisted beams under complicated loads was presented,with special attention devoted to the solving process of governing equations which take into account the effects of torsion-related warping as well as transverse shear deformations.These governing equations,in special cases,can be readily solved and yield the solutions to the problem.The solutions can be used for the analysis of the beams,including the calculation of various internal forces,stresses,strains and displacements.The present theory will be used to investigate the stresses and displacements of a plane curved beam subjected to the action of horizontal and vertical distributed loads.The numerical results obtained by the present theory are found to be in very good agreement with the results of the FEM results.Besides,the present theory is not limited to the beams with a double symmetric cross section,it can also be extended to those with arbitrary crosssectional shape.
