Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to develop a finite element for dynamic
analysis of orthotropic laminated beams. The mechanical
model is able to describe bending, shear and extension, and it
includes all the inertial effects of a plane problem. The equation
of motion is obtained by using Hamilton's principle and that
equation is discretized in the space via FEM Two different
methods are used to find the solution of the movement equation.
The first method solves the problem as an eigenproblem.
The second method uses a time integration algorithm of Newmark's
family. Some numerical results are presented to show
the principal features of the formulation.
