Hey, I'm trying to solve a little mechanics problem and I'm stuck.
http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t282/Calc_photos/PlateWithHole.jpg
I want to find the maximum stress in the system. I know that it should be at the top and bottom of the hole. The plate is fully constrained at the left edge.
I find the average tensile stress in section A:
sigma = F/A = 2000N/(100-40)*2 = 1,67N/mm^2
I also know that the stress distribution in section A is not even.
Could someone give me a little hint?
Thanks
