Abstract

Shear stresses occur in almost any applications during machining of mechanical parts. Inhomogeneities perturb the stress field in working pieces, meaning that they are responsible of a strong stress gradient and therefore cracks may occur in the regions in the vicinity of these inhomogeneities. The present paper presents some results concerning the stress state for a plane with two circular identical holes, subjected to pure shearing. To find the stress state the authors used analytical and numerical methods, on the basis of theory of elasticity hypothesis. The analytical method is based on the Airy’s stress function method, using bipolar coordinates. The stress fields (principal shearing and principal normal stresses), plotted using Mathcad application were compared with the stress fields obtained by FEA, using Catia application. An excellent agreement is found between the plotted stresses obtained by the mentioned methods.
