A study of "shear lag" phenomenon in a stiffened flat panel by photoelastic methods
In the construction of modern metal airplanes there are many locations where a more or less concentrated load is transferred to a large area of material. Therefore the design-engineer is frequently confronted with the problem of “shear lag.” This problem can be treated in a few simple cases by the...
