A systematic experimental study to determine the effect of curvatures and debond on the flexural stiffness and strength of composite sandwich beam structures made from fiber-glass/epoxy laminate skins and polyurethane foam core has been carried out. Flat and curved sandwich beams (with 15Β°, 30Β°, 45Β°
The effects of crack ratios and positions on the fundamental frequencies and buckling loads of slender cantilever Euler beams with a single-edge crack are investigated both experimentally and numerically using the finite element method, based on energy approach. The governing matrix equations are de
An asymptotic analysis is carried out for the equations of free vibrations of a beam having varying curvature and cross-section. The effect of splitting the asymptotic limit for eigenvalues into two families is revealed and its connection with boundary conditions is discussed. The analysis of the pr
The free vibration and buckling of partial interaction composite beams are investigated using the state-space method based on the two-dimensional theory of elasticity. The analytical solutions of a beam with two simply supported ends are obtained as well as semi-analytical solutions are obtained for
