Abstract

 

In this paper, we derive two non-standard finite difference schemes for the Timoshenko beam problem. The schemes are uniform with respect to the thickness small parameter of the beam, thus, no locking phenomenon occurs. Numerical results are presented.

 

Key words: Timoshenko beam, non-standard difference scheme, locking phenomenon
