IV.—The Stress in the Vicinity of an Infinite Row of Collinear Cracks in an Elastic Body*

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 February 2012

Synopsis

The distribution of stress in the neighbourhood of an infinite row of collinear cracks in an elastic body is calculated for general distributions of internal pressure. The case in which each of the cracks is opened out by the same constant pressure is considered in detail; the variation with the ratio of the width of the crack to the distance between two cracks of quantities of physical interest is shown in a series of diagrams.
