Abstract: This paper contains an exact solution for the stress distribution in an elastic spherical shell rotating about a diametral axis. The surfaces of the shell are free of boundary tractions. The ...

Abstract: An oblong elliptic inclusion is perfectly filled in a hole in an infinite plate in the unstressed state. Cavities at the ends of the inclusion will appear as a result of the application of ...

Abstract: Most composites are fabricated at elevated temperatures and cooled to room temperature. The difference in coefficients of thermal expansion of the fiber and matrix may cause buckling of the ...
