| Summary: | This paper is concerned with the determination
of limit loads for centrally cracked square plates subjected
to biaxial tension. It briefly discusses the concept
of limit loads and some aspects of numerical modelling.
It presents results of numerical calculations conducted for
two-dimensional (plane strain state and plane stress state)
and three-dimensional cases. It also considers the relationship
between the limit load and the crack length, the
specimen thickness, the yield strength and the biaxial load
factor, defined for the purpose of this work. The paper includes
approximation formulae to calculate the limit load. |
