Pham, S.D.Karamanli, A.Wattanasakulpong, N.Vo, T.P.2024-05-192024-05-1920242352-0124https://doi.org/10.1016/j.istruc.2024.106431https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12713/4379This paper proposes a finite element model based on Quasi-3D theory, which includes both normal and shear effects, to study the bending, vibration, and buckling responses of FG-CNTRC and GPLRC curved beams. A two-node beam element satisfying C1 continuity requirement is utilized to compute displacements, critical buckling loads, and natural frequencies for beams with various boundary conditions. To evaluate the precision of the suggested model, various numerical examples are conducted. Next, a comprehensive parameter study is carried out to study the effects of distribution patterns and fractional volume of reinforced materials, open angles, aspect ratios, and boundary conditions. Numerous numerical results can serve as benchmarks for subsequent investigations. © 2024 The Authorseninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFg-Cntrc And Gplrc Curved BeamsFinite ElementQuasi-3d TheoryArticle632-s2.0-8519072098610.1016/j.istruc.2024.106431Q1
