• The contour of the cross section does not deform in its own plane;
• The shearing deformation of the middle surface is zero in each panel;
• Each panel behaves as thin plate. This implies that the Kirchoff hypothesis is valid for each plate element;
• Strains are small but large displacements and rotations are allowed.
The beams are made from an assembly of thin flat-layered panels, each panel
corresponding to a symmetric laminate

• A finite element model for optimal design of composite laminated thin-walled beam structures, with
geometrically nonlinear behavior, including post critical behavior and accounting for Warping
deformation;
• Based on an Updated Lagrangean formulation;
• To define the load-deflection path, a generalized displacement control method has been
implemented;
• The thin-walled cross-sections are modeled as assemblies of flat symmetric laminated panels and
their bending-torsion properties are defined in terms of the cross-section geometry, warping
function and properties of the corresponding laminate at each point;
• An eight-node quadratic two-dimensional isoparametric finite element modeling is used in order to
determine the bending-torsion properties;
• The structural discretization is formulated throughout three-dimensional two-node Hermitean
finite beam elements, with 7 d.o.f. per node;
• Final Comments

• Design elements are used for design sensitivity analysis and optimization. Geometrically these
elements coincide with the laminates;
• Lamina orientations and cross-section global geometry are considered as design variables;
• The nonlinear critical load constraint was replaced by a displacement constraint;
• The last example shows that the critical load of laminate composite beam is strongly dependent on
the lamina orientation, hence this orientation is a fundamental parameter to these structures.
