Refined Theory of Transversely Isotropic Elastic Beam Posting inside Winklers Foundation

Abstract:

A refined theory of transversely isotropic beam posting inside Winkler foundation is derived without ad hoc assumptions. Based on elasticity theory, the displacement field and stress states of isotropic body are studied. From boundary conditions, the refined theory of transversely isotropic beam posting inside Winkler foundation is given. The approximate equations for the beam under transverse loadings are derived directly from the refined beam theory.
