Abstract

Compelling arguments with substantiating data are presented to explain why there is no role for principal shear axes in shear correction factors of Timoshenko beam theory. This article supplies more details to the explanation in a previous paper on this issue. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
