| description abstract | A finite element formulation for the large‐deformation analysis of space‐frame structures is presented. The formulation is based on second‐order geometric nonlinear theory and Vlasov's theory for thin‐walled beams (i.e., large displacement of members with small strains, which includes the warping deformation influence). The influence of member‐distributed loading on the geometric nonlinear response of space‐frame structures also is included. An updated Lagrangian formulation is used to model large joint translations and rotations. Prismatic beams of arbitrary cross section are considered. Rodriguez's modified rotation vector is used to represent angular deformations, which avoids rotational discontinuities at the joints of deformed space‐frame structures. Numerical results and algorithmic details are presented in a companion paper. | |
