Extract

1. The problems of stress distributions in an infinite plate containing a circular hole were solved in a general manner by Bickley(1) for isotropic materials. An alternative method, using complex stress functions, was later given by Green(5) and extended so as to apply to aeolotropic materials. In the present paper Green's method is employed to determine the stress distributions that arise when the stresses are produced by isolated forces acting at points on, or near to, the edge of the circular hole, and though some of the solutions are cumbersome they are all obtained in finite form.
