Abstract
Static bending of a twisted beam subjected to distributed transverse loads is established by using the Timoshenko beam theory and applying the principle of minimum potential energy. The closed-form solution for the static deflection of cantilever twisted beam is then derived. The effects of the twist angle, thickness ratio and shear deformation on the static bending characteristics of twist beams are investigated and discussed.
