Stretch of an elastic plane with a lattice of straight cuts

Resumo

Exact analytical solutions have been obtained for problems in the elasticity theory for a plane with a vertical lattice of straight cuts. Two main problems have been considered. In the first problem, the cut edges are free of external forces and the plane at infinity is stretched by constant external stresses and, in the second problem, the cut edges are loaded by concentrated normal forces and there are no stresses at infinity.
