Solutions for load and temperature stress

The formulation for the load stress and temperature stress are solved by various researchers for various boundary conditions. Some such solutions are presented in the following:

• Solutions for load stress
  • Interior stress due to loading at interior (Westergaard 1926)
  • Edge stress due to loading at edge (Westergaard 1926
  • Corner stress due to loading at corner (Bradbury 1938, Fwa et al. 1996, Westergaard 1926)
• Solutions for temperature stress
