Abstract In this paper the boundary element method is employed to develop a displacement solution for the general transverse shear loading problem of composite beams of arbitrary constant cross section. The composite beam (thin or thick walled) consists of materials in contact, each of which can surround a finite number of inclusions. The materials have different elasticity and shear moduli and are firmly bonded together. The analysis of the beam is accomplished with respect to a coordinate system that has its origin at the centroid of the cross section, while its axes are not necessarily the principal bending ones. The transverse… More >
