A photoelastic investigation of the effect of elliptical and modified cutouts in flat panels subjected to combined bending and shear
Quite frequently in an aircraft structure there are occasions when it is necessary or advantageous to make openings or cutouts in the structure. These may be lightening holes in a web or spar or they may be openings in the structure which are necessary for access or other reasons. An analytical solu...
