Can someone give me a tip on how to solve for the response of a linear time-varying system to arbitrary input? I mean other than numerically solving the ODE. Is there an analog to transfer functions?
Dinosaur,
A Timoshenko beam model accounts for shear deformation. Therefore it is more suitable for thick beams than the Euler-Bernoulli model where deforamtion is only due to axial strain.

Can someone please guide me to a reference where I can find finite element matrices (stiffness matrix and consistent mass matrix) for a Timoshenko beam?
