This paper presents the full closed-form solution of the governing equations describing the
behaviour of a shear-deformable two-layer beam with partial interaction. Timoshenko's …

The mechanical coupling of timber products to the masonry walls of unreinforced masonry
(URM) buildings is generating considerable interest in terms of seismic vulnerability …

This paper presents the details of an experimental study carried out on two full-scale simply-
supported composite steel–concrete beams to investigate their long-term behaviour and …

The objective of this paper is the computation of the Airy stress function of a two-layer
composite beam with interlayer slip. For the calculation of the upper and lower layer stress …

This paper is focused on elastic stability problems of partial composite columns: the
conditions for the axial load not to introduce any pre-bending effects in composite columns; …

This paper describes the testing of three full-scale simply-supported composite steel-
concrete beams. The specimens were representative of a typical secondary beam used in …

This paper presents an analytical model for the short-and long-term analysis of composite
steel-concrete beams with partial shear interaction and accounting for shear-lag effects. The …

This paper presents a novel geometric non-linear finite element formulation for the analysis
of shear deformable two-layer beams with interlayer slips. We adopt the co-rotational …

The paper focuses on an innovative method to pre-stress and camber composite beams.
The method relies on the compression force that can be generated by distributed screw …

A new mathematical model for the non-linear analysis of two-layer planar beams
considering flexible connections is introduced and an effective, strain-based finite element …
