Abstract

A general analytical and numerical procedure, based on the linear theory, is outlined for the elastic stress and deflection analysis of an arbitrary plane curved beam subjected to arbitrary static and dynamic loads. The equations of motion admit shear deformation and rotary inertia. The numerical solution is obtained by Houbolt's method and by finite differences. The paper also presents two numerical examples.
