Abstract

Based on the traditional mechanical model of thin-walled straight beam, the paper makes a systematic analysis and research on the pre-twisted thin-walled beam finite element numerical model. Firstly, based on the geometric deformation differential relationship, the paper deduces the pre-twisted thin-walled beam Saint-Venant warping strain. According to traditional thin-walled straight beam finite element mechanical model, the paper establishes its finite element stiffness matrix considering the Saint-Venant warping deformations. Finally, by calculating the pre-twisted elliptical section beam example, and contrasting three-dimensional solid finite element using ANSYS, the comparative analysis results show that pre-twisted thin-walled beam element stiffness matrix considering Saint-Venant warping deformation has good accuracy.
