Title Stresses in an infinite plate with a free elliptic hole
Author(s) G. Z. Sharafutdinov (Moscow)
Abstract This paper deals with the problem of the uniaxial tension of an infinite thin plate with a free elliptic hole. The problem is considered in 3D formulation and treated in terms of functions of a complex variable. To that end, a third complex potential is introduced in addition to the Kolosov-Muskhelishvili potentials. The representations of the displacement vector, the stress tensor, and the strain tensor in terms of the three complex potentials are given. To solve the problem, we utilize a conformal mapping. The solution is sought in the form of power series. It is established that the tangential components of the stress tensor neglected in the plane problem exert a significant influence. A number of numerical results characterizing the solution of the problem are presented. An asymptotic behavior of the stresses as the eccentricity of the elliptic hole increases without limit is established.

As is known [1], the solutions of problems of elasticity for the plane stress state are approximate. The refinement of these solutions by considering 3D formulation of the problem is of considerable interest. This is especially important for nonlinear mechanics of solids when determining real stress and strain fields. The characteristics of these fields are frequently utilized to identify critical parameters, such as the ultimate strength, the limit of elasticity or the yield stress. For the problem under consideration, such an analysis is particularly important when estimating the stress-strain state near the tip of a crack modelled by an elliptic hole in the plate.
