PLANE STRESS ANALYSIS OF A PLATE WITH A HOLE - I

Problem: In the plate with a hole under plane stress, find deformed shape of the hole and
determine the maximum stress distribution along A-B. Given E = 210GPa, t = 1 mm, Poisson’s
ratio = 0.3, Dia of the circle = 10 mm. Take factor of safety = 2.5

Calculations:

Force 2000
• Pressure, p = =
Area 40 × 1

= 50 N/mm2

2000
• Nominal stress, σnom =
(40−10) × 1

= 66.67 N/mm2

• Max. stress, σmax = σnom × F.O.S

= 66.67 × 2.5

= 166.67 N/mm2

PLANE STRESS ANALYSIS OF A PLATE WITH A HOLE - II

Problem: Determine the stress and displacement fields using ANSYS for the the square plate
of uniform thickness with a circular hole with dimensions shown in the figure below. The
thickness of the plate is 1 mm. The Young's modulus E =107 MPa and the Poisson ratio is 0.3.
A uniform pressure p = 1 MPa acts on the boundary of the hole. Assume that plane stress
conditions prevail.
