Title: VERTICAL STRESS UNDER CERTAIN AXISYMMETRICAL LOADINGS
Accession Number: 00233645
Record Type: Component
Abstract: THIS PAPER IS CONCERNED WITH THE DEFINITION OF VERTICAL NORMAL STRESSES IN AN ISOTROPIC, LINEARLY ELASTIC HALF-SPACE LOADED AXISYMMETRICALLY BY AN ELEMENT THAT IS FLEXIBLE AND PRODUCES ONLY NORMAL LOADINGS AT THE CONTRACT WITH ITS FOUNDATION. FOLLOWING THE PRESENTATION OF A GENERAL FORMULATION FOR ANY AXISYMMETRICAL LOADING FUNCTION, INTEGRATIONS ARE PERFORMED FOR SOME SPECIFIC LOADING FUNCTIONS. THE VARIATION OF VERTICAL NORMAL STRESS WITH VERTICAL AND LATERAL POSITION IN THE MASS IS GRAPHICALLY ILLUSTRATED FOR A UNIFORM LOADING AND FOR A PARABOLIC LOADING FUNCTION. FOR A CONICAL LOADING FUNCTION, CENTERLINE VERTICAL NORMAL STRESSES ONLY ARE COMPUTED. CENTERLINE STRESSES ARE COMPARED FOR THE THREE LOADING FUNCTIONS. IN ADDITION, STRESSES AT VARIOUS VERTICAL AND LATERAL POSITIONS ARE COMPARED FOR THE PARABOLIC LOADING FUNCTION AND AN APPROXIMATION OF IT AFFORDED BY A SERIES OF DISKS. PRACTICAL USE OF THE PARTICULAR VERTICAL STRESS SOLUTIONS IS SUGGESTED BY EXAMPLE, INCLUDING A PRELOAD EMBANKMENT FOR A TANK STRUCTURE. /AUTHOR/
