Improved Strategy of Two-Node Curved Beam Element Based on the Same Beam’s Nodes Information

The curved beam with a great initial curvature is the typical structure and applied widely in real engineering structures. The common practice in the current literature employs two-node straight beam elements as the elementary members for stress and displacement analysis, which needs a large number...
