A survey of several methods under the heading of strong formulation finite element method
(SFEM) is presented. These approaches are distinguished from classical one, termed weak …

This paper aims at investigating the effect of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) agglomeration on the
free vibrations of laminated composite doubly-curved shells and panels reinforced by CNTs …

Abstract By means of Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) curves, it is possible to
describe arbitrary shapes with holes and discontinuities. These peculiar shapes can be …

The static response of composite plates and shells reinforced by agglomerated
nanoparticles made of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) is investigated in the present paper. A two …

The theoretical framework of the present manuscript covers the dynamic analysis of doubly-
curved shell structures using the generalized displacement field of the Carrera Unified …

We investigate recovery of through-the-thickness transverse normal and shear strains and
stresses in statically deformed functionally graded (FG) doubly-curved sandwich shell …

The main purpose of this work is to perform the free vibration analysis of several laminated
composite doubly-curved shells, singly-curved shells and plates, characterized by a …

The present article illustrates a general formulation for a higher-order layer-wise theory
related to the analysis of the free vibrations of thick doubly-curved laminated composite …

This study focuses on the static analysis of functionally graded conical shells and panels
and extends a previous formulation by the first three authors. A 2D Unconstrained Third …

Engineering applications in conventional numerical modeling are investigated by domain
decomposition techniques because, generally, structural components do not have a regular …
