Abstract: This paper proposes the use of a onedimensional (1D) structural theory to analyze thin walled structures with longitudinal and transverse stiffeners. The 1D theory has hierarchical features and it is based on the unified ...

Abstract: This paper proposes advanced approaches to the free vibration analysis of reinforcedshell wing structures. These approaches exploit a hierarchical, onedimensional (1D) formulation, which leads to accurate and computationally ...

Abstract: An efficient and novel micromechanical computational platform for progressive failure analysis of fiber-reinforced composites is presented. The numerical framework is based on a recently developed micromechanical platform ...
