β¦ Synopsis
A simple method to evaluate the deflections at midpoints of the various spans of continuous composite beams having partial shear connection is developed. The method can be used irrespective of the type of loading and the configuration, i.e. the number and lengths of spans, of the beam. In this method the actual continuous beam is represented by a series of single span beams for which the deflections are already determined by using a linear partial interaction theory. The redundant moments at the internal supports of the beam are assumed to be the same for both the full and partial interaction cases.

A comprehensive approach to the continuous damage of materials is formulated within the framework of thermodynamic reasoning. Particular emphasis is put on the application to composites. The starting point lies in the assumption that damage evolution can be described at the macroscopic scale by mean
