Notes:
A family of 2-D and 3-D superparametric curved beam elements are introduced as a special form of general 2-D and 3-D isoparametric continuum elements. Each beam ‘subelement’ is rectangular incross section, however several elements may be offset and overlayed for the analysis of structural members of quite general section properties. A number of examples are presented in order to illustrate the validity and range of application of the element.
