Extract

The “frozen stress” techniques of photoelasticity can give a complete knowledge of the stress, system in a solid body, but the examination of the stresses requires more time and care than in corresponding flat plate tests. In tests on tubes with transverse circular holes, sponsored by The Royal Aeronautical Society, all practicable geometrical shapes are examined and the maximum stress is measured in tension, bending and torsion. The results are comprehensive and show the inadequacy of previous results. In all cases the maximum stress occurs inside the bore of the hole. The accuracy of all the graphs of stress concentration factors is better than five per cent.
