This book offers a comprehensive exploration of advanced finite element methods for modeling and analyzing beam-like structures. Moving beyond traditional 1D finite elements, it introduces the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF), a versatile framework that unifies various structural behaviors under a single mathematical approach.
The work addresses key challenges in finite element modeling, particularly shear locking, and provides practical solutions through techniques such as reduced and selectively reduced integration and mixed formulations. It also introduces Node-Dependent Kinematics (NDK), enabling localized refinement for high-accuracy results without excessive computational costs.
Designed for students, researchers, and professionals, the book includes MATLAB scripts to aid in deriving stiffness matrices for beam structures, bridging the gap between theoretical foundations and practical application. Clear, step-by-step instructions make complex concepts accessible, fostering both analytical understanding and hands-on skills.
Whether you are an engineering student, a researcher in structural mechanics, or a practicing engineer, this book serves as an invaluable resource for mastering finite element techniques and applying CUF in real-world scenarios.

About the Author
Erasmo Carrera is a Professor of Aerospace Engineering at Politecnico di Torino, holding degrees in Aeronautics and Aerospace Engineering , as well as a PhD in Aerospace Engineering. He has held research and visiting positions at institutions including the University of Stuttgart and Virginia Tech, focusing on advanced theories for composites, finite elements, and aeroelasticity. Carrera has authored over 700 articles and serves as a reviewer and editor for leading journals in his field.
Gerlando Augello is an Italian engineer with over 30 years of experience in mechanical and structural analysis, primarily in aerospace. He holds a Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering and has led Mechanical Computer Aided Engineering teams at Thales Alenia Space, contributing to major space projects such as EXOMARS, Space Rider, and EUCLID. Recognized as a “Maestro del Lavoro” in 2014, he continues to develop advanced methods in structural analysis and design.
Riccardo Augello is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow who earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Politecnico di Torino in 2021. Specializing in nonlocal mechanics and nonlinear analysis of composite structures, he has collaborated with the City University of Hong Kong and joined Caltech to advance modeling for ultra-thin, deployable space systems.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GreatBookPricesUK, Castle Donington, Derby, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
