Stress distribution around a circular hole in a fibre metal laminate finite width plate specimen

The stress distribution in the vicinity of a notch is investigated as a first step towards a more fundamental understanding of the blunt notch behaviour of fibre metal laminates. The applicability of several analytical methodologies for determination of the stress distribution in the vicinity of a notch in a finite width plate is assessed in...

Methoden voor het meten van vervormingen aan constructies - Structural deformation: a comprehensive survey of modern measurement methods

The measurement of deformations remains an important discipline for the development and evaluation of structures. The report gives a survey of the most important measurement methods now available. Aspects of light which are vital for the understanding of optical methods are treated because these methods become more and more important. The...
