Vg. Ukadgaonker et Pj. Awasare, A NOVEL METHOD OF STRESS-ANALYSIS OF AN INFINITE-PLATE WITH ROUNDED CORNERS OF A RECTANGULAR HOLE UNDER UNIFORM EDGE LOADING, INDIAN JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING AND MATERIALS SCIENCES, 1(1), 1994, pp. 17-25
In this paper, a new method is presented which uses Schwarz Alternatin
g technique to determine the two complex stress functions for the stre
ss field in two dimensional isotropic homogeneous infinite plate with
reactangular hole subjected to uniform uniaxial, biaxial, and shear ed
ge loadings. These stress functions can be reduced to solve various ty
pes of hole boundary problems such as circular hole, elliptical hole,
square hole and crack. The stress field near the rounded corners of re
ctangular hole for different angular position of loading are determine
d. The variation of stress concentration factor with normalized corner
radius for various loading eases are obtained and compared with the e
xisting results.
