A curved beam element and its application to traffic poles
Curved traffic poles may vibrate noticeably when excited by the wind. The finite element method can be utilized to analyze these beam-like structures. A three-node, curved beam element has been developed for the s atic and dynamic analysis of curved poles. Shear deformation as well as rotary inertia...
