A new finite element formulation of three-dimensional beam theory based on interpolation of curvature

Zupan, Dejan (author), Saje, Miran (author)

A new finite element formulation of the *kinematically exact finite-strain beam theory* is presented. The finite element formulation employs the generalized virtual work in which the main role is played by the pseudo-curvature vector. The solution of the governing equations is found by using a combined Galerkin-collocation algorithm
