How to find derivate of matrix which is function of vector by it vector?

I don't think there is a unique definition of partial derivative of a matrix with respect to a vector. The paper "On the concept of matrix derivative" by Magnus (Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 2010) sheds more light on this and should be useful.

Is there a way to form a 3x3 stiffness matrix for bending in the plane of a Timoshenko beam?

I want to introduce the slope of this kind of beam as the sum of the angle due to bending and angle due to the shear. I know that the typical stiffness matrix for this case dimensions 2x2.

Is there a typical example of cantilever beam for which there is an obvious difference between Euler Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam theory?

I work on some eigenfrequencies analysis of that kind of beams, and still search for ''good'' dimension ratio.
