A geometrically exact Kirchhoff beam finite element with torsion warping

In this paper, a geometrically exact beam model is presented that includes the Kirchhoff constraint and torsion-related warping, aiming at capturing accurately the flexural-torsional behaviour of slender thin-walled beams undergoing large displacements. The cross-section rotation tensor is obtained...
