Abstract
We present a formulation in order to evaluate the stiffness and shear stresses in orthotropic composite beams, with any complex cross-sectio nal shape. The method generates two-dimensional partial differential p roblems defined on the cross-section. Based on these formulations a co mputer program has been developed and verified by means of comparisons with analytical solution and computed results derived of three-dimens ional discretization.
