A novel four variable refined plate theory is proposed in this work for laminated composite
plates. The theory considers a parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains, and …

Multiple-step beams carrying intermediate lumped masses with/without rotary inertias are
widely used in engineering applications, but in the literature for free vibration analysis of …

Introducing new functions, namely Basic Displacement Functions (BDFs), free transverse
vibration of non-prismatic beams is studied from a mechanical point of view. Following …
