• Nonuniform warping
• Geometrically exact beams
• Koiter asymptotic formulations

A new geometrically nonlinear model for homogeneous and isotropic beams with generic section including non-uniform warping due to torsion and shear is derived. Each section is endowed with a corotational frame where statics and kinematics are described using a 3D linear elastic model which extends the Saint-Venant solution to non-uniform warping cases. The algebra of change of observer and a mixed variational principle give the model in terms of generalized parameters. Using a mixed interpolation the model is implemented within a FEM Koiter analysis highly sensitive to the geometrical coherence of the formulation.
