The equations governing the distribution of the stresses in a cylindrically orthotropic plate with a circular hole are solved for the case when the plate is subjected to uniform uniaxial traction. Closed-form solutions are given for the circumferential stresses along the edge of the hole.

The present study brings out the thorough analysis of isotropic and orthotropic fixed rectangular plate with center circular hole under transverse static loading condition. In this paper influence of stress concentration and deflection due to singularity for isotropic and orthotropic composite materials under different parametric conditions is obtained. The effect of thickness -to- width of plate (T/A) and diameter-to-width (D/A) ratio upon stress concentration factor (SCF) for different stresses were studied. An isotropic and one composite material were considered for analysis to determine the variation of SCF with elastic constants. Deflection in transverse direction were calculated and analyzed. Results are presented in graphical form and discussed. Three-dimensional finite element models were created using ANSYS software. Results showed that maximum stress appear near the vicinity of the hole at the upper and lower portions of the plate. The effect of material properties, (E1/E2) on SCF for stresses along x, y and z axis is established thorough this analysis.

A simple approximate solution has been derived for the stress distribution near a circular hole applicable to any orthotropic composite laminate subjected to biaxial loading. The degree of accuracy of this solution was found to be overall acceptable, but strongly dependent upon the laminate lay-up and biaxiality ratio.
