Transfer Matrices for Beams Loaded Axially and Laid on an Elastic Foundation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 June 2016
Summary
Using a modified model of the axially-loaded Timoshenko beam, nine field transfer matrices for the homogeneous case and three field matrices for the non-homogeneous case have been derived, covering thus all the “cases of state” of continuous beams loaded axially and laid on an elastic foundation. The loads and restraints (translatory and rotatory) may be both concentrated and distributed. The matrices make possible a simultaneous treatment of free vibrations, forced vibrations, statics and buckling.
