  Flexure of Thick Cantilever Beams using Trigonometric Shear Deformation Theory

  By Yuwaraj M. Ghugal, Ajay G. Dahake

  Abstract: A trigonometric shear deformation theory for flexural analysis of thick beams, taking into account transverse shear deformation effects, is developed. The number of variables in the present theory is same as that in the first order shear deformation theory. The sinusoidal function is used in displacement field in terms of thickness coordinate to represent the shear deformation effects. The noteworthy feature of this theory is that the transverse shear stresses …
