   Hi everyone

   I was wondering if we can apply GEBT for concentric tubes or not. if anybody has used it for that case kindly share your suggestions like what will happen when both concentric tubes are free to rotate with respect to each other.

    

   Thanks

   GEBT is a beam analysis code. If you have two tubes rotate with respect to each other, then it is not behaving as a beam. GEBT cannot handle it.
