A refined theory of transversely isotropic beam posting inside Winkler foundation is derived without ad hoc assumptions. Based on elasticity theory, the displacement field and stress states of isotropic body are studied. From boundary conditions, the refined theory of transversely isotropic beam posting inside Winkler foundation is given. The approximate equations for the beam under transverse loadings are derived directly from the refined beam theory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
