Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge\mathcal\pink{Answer}$

we always mean the "isoparametric beam element." • The isoparametric formulation can be effective for the analysis of - Curved beams - Geometrically nonlinear problems - Stiffened shell structures (isoparametric beam and shell elements are coupled compatibly) •

Hope it will be helpful :)

Answer 2

When in the following discussion we refer to a "beam element" we always mean the "isoparametric beam element." The formulation is analogous to the formulation of the isoparametric (degenerate) shell element.
