Generalized plane stress in an elastic wedge (under distributed and isolated loads)

The thesis establishes general methods of solution for the stress and displacement in a wedge with distributed flank loadings or force or couple nuclei acting at any point. Full use has been made of the compactness of two-dimensional elasticity theory as expressed in terms of complex potentials and...
