Submitted by Serkan Guler on

Hi I am Serkan,

I want to develope equivalent beam

for arbitrary shapes of solid parts. Can you share your ideas me?

This has been done using the variational asymptotic method, and implemented in a general-purpose beam modeling tool VABS . For a beam model to be accurate represent the 3D solid, the cross-section must be small comparing to the beam axis.
