Pa. Kelly et al., THE STRESS-CONCENTRATION PRODUCED BY A HOLE NEAR AN INTERFACE OR JOINT, Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part C, Journal of mechanical engineering science, 207(4), 1993, pp. 239-246
Solutions are presented for the stress concentration arising in bonded
dissimilar elements weakened by a circular hole. The influence of bot
h of the Dundurs constants (which quantify the mismatch in elastic pro
perties of the two materials) is presented, and it is shown that the s
tress concentration produced is greater than that produced in an infin
ite body if the hole exists in the stiffer medium, and vice versa. The
method of solution adopted is the distribution of dislocations around
the periphery of the hole.
