We present a novel formulation for the dynamics of geometrically exact Timoshenko beams and beam structures made of viscoelastic material featuring complex, arbitrarily curved initial geometries. An $\textrm{SO}(3)$-consistent and…
We present a coupling of the Finite Element and the Boundary Element Method in an isogeometric framework to approximate either two-dimensional Laplace interface problems or boundary value problems consisting in two disjoint domains. We…
The paper presents a two-dimensional geometrically nonlinear formulation of a beam element that can accommodate arbitrarily large rotations of cross sections. The formulation is based on the integrated form of equilibrium equations, which…
Slender beams are often employed as constituents in engineering materials and structures. Prior experiments on lattices of slender beams have highlighted their complex failure response, where the interplay between buckling and fracture…
The aim of this paper is to find an optimal matching between manifold-valued curves, and thereby adequately compare their shapes, seen as equivalent classes with respect to the action of reparameterization. Using a canonical decomposition…
We study a planar thin brittle beam subject to elastic deformations and cracks described in terms of a nonlinear Griffith energy functional acting on $SBV$ deformations of the beam. In particular we consider the case in which elastic bulk…
The present work focuses on geometrically exact finite elements for highly slender beams. It aims at the proposal of novel formulations of Kirchhoff-Love type, a detailed review of existing formulations of Kirchhoff-Love and Simo-Reissner…
A new construction of biorthogonal splines for isogeometric mortar methods is proposed. The biorthogonal basis has a local support and, at the same time, optimal approximation properties, which yield optimal results with mortar methods. We…
To solve boundary integral equations for potential problems using collocation Boundary Element Method (BEM) on smooth curved 3D geometries, an analytical singularity extraction technique is employed. By adopting the isoparametric approach,…
We propose and analyze the numerical approximation for a viscoelastic Euler-Bernoulli beam model containing a nonlinear strong damping coefficient. The finite difference method is used for spatial discretization, while the backward Euler…
An asymptotic analysis of the energy functional of a fiber-reinforced composite beam with a periodic microstructure in its cross section is performed. From this analysis the asymptotically exact energy as well as the 1-D beam theory of…
Recently, the authors have proposed a novel all-angle beam contact (ABC) formulation that combines the advantages of existing point and line contact models in a variationally consistent manner. However, the ABC formulation has so far only…
In this work, we consider networks of so-called geometrically exact beams, namely, shearable beams that may undergo large motions. The corresponding mathematical model, commonly written in terms of displacements and rotations expressed in a…
We derive novel guaranteed lower bounds for eigenvalues of the Euler-Bernoulli beam with variable bending stiffness. While the standard finite element Rayleigh-Ritz method automatically yields upper bounds, we obtain lower bounds by…
In this paper, the finite free-form beam element is formulated by the isogeometric approach based on the Timoshenko beam theory to investigate the free vibration behavior of the beams. The non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) functions…
In the first part of the paper a generalized theoretical approach towards beam coupling impedances and stretched-wire measurements is introduced. Applied to a circular symmetric setup, this approach allows to estimate the systematic…
Airy beams are known for displaying shape invariance and self-acceleration along the transverse direction while they propagate forwards. Although these properties could be associated with the beam coherence, it has been revealed that they…
