Sažetak

This paper presents an approximate approach to the out-of-plane linear static analysis of isotropic thin-walled curved beams with doubly symmetric H-shaped cross-sections, whose undeformed centroid line is the circular arc. The governing equations are derived using Vlasov's assumptions, the elasticity equations expressed in the cylindrical coordinate system, and the equilibrium equations for the curved centroid line. The terms containing the curvature effect are linearized by neglecting the higher order terms of the Maclaurin series expansion. With this linearization, the geometric properties for straight thin-walled beams can be used. An additional simplification is introduced by using the warping moment−bimoment relation for straight thin-walled beams. The approximate closed-form solutions for long, slightly, and moderately curved beams, obtained by the proposed and Vlasov’s approaches, are compared with the results of the shell finite element analysis by investigating the influence of beam length and curvature on displacements and normal stress.
