Abstract
The problem of estimating the bending stress distribution in the vicinity of cracks located on a single line in an elastic plate subjected to concentrated moment is examined. Using classical plate theory and integral transform techniques, the general formulae for the bending moment and twisting moment in an elastic plate containing cracks located on a single line are derived. The solution is obtained in detail for the case in which there is a single crack in an infinite plate, and the bending stress intensity factor is determined in a closed form. Two examples are considered to illustrate the present approach.
