Stresses in the Infinite Plane With a Circular Inclusion, Loaded by a Uniformly Distributed Load

Abstract

The stress problems have been treated already for the case of the infinite elastic plane with a circular inclusion, which is subjected to a concentrated force or a uniform tension. In the present paper, the author analyzes the stresses for the cases of a uniformly distributed load acting on the infinite plane with a circular inclusion or on this circular inclusion. The solutions of this problem are composed of the terms in closed forms and the Fourier series, but the stress components are managed to be nearly presented with the values in closed forms by making the values of the series less than those in closed forms.
