The aim of the research is to obtain optimal ranges of thermal envelope for the desired energy classes, which will contribute to a more economical and rational approach to the design of buildings, as well as to prove that with the increase of thermal envelope there is an increase of the energy class. The model on which the research was formed and a...

In this paper dynamic analysis of a curved Bernoulli – Euler beam subjected to a moving load ispresented. Moving load is modelled as a single force with constant magnitude and direction, whichmoves along its trajectory. Plane curved Bernoulli – Euler beam element is formulated usingisogeometric approach where both the displacement field and geometr...
