Sentence examples for closed cross section from inspiring English sources

The profiles are made of glass fiber reinforcement and thermosetting vinylester matrix with thin-walled open or closed cross section.

The beams are constructed from a single-cell closed cross section and a number of non-classical effects such as material anisotropy, transverse shear, warping inhibition and nonuniform torsional model are considered in the beam model.

The methodology is explained in the framework of the so-called Generalized Beam Theory, considering beams on elastic foundation and thin-walled structures with non-uniform torsion and distortion in a unified theory for open and closed cross section considering the shear deformability of the wall midline.

Beamlike solutions for fully anisotropic elastic tubes of arbitrary closed cross section are derived following the exact beam theory introduced recently by Ladevèze and Simmonds [Comptes Rendus Acad. Sci. Paris 322 (1996) 455; Eur. J. Mech., A/Solids 17 (1998) 377].

All the tapered beams analyzed are of three cell closed cross section under cantilever configuration.

It is here called a partially closed cross-section because it is not continuously and rigidly connected.

The unknown function is the middle line of the thin-walled closed cross-section while its thickness is t prescribed.

In this paper, the problem of optimum design of a thin-walled closed cross-section is presented.

Besides, the effect of shear flexibility is also analyzed for different laminate stacking sequence, considering open and closed cross-section beams.

The present paper considers the problem of dynamic behavior of thin-walled beams of arbitrary, closed cross-section, by means of an exact solution.
