Southampton: Computational Mechanics Publications. 169-180 (1993). The problem under consideration involves the computation of stresses and displacements of a square plate subjected to uniform pressure. First, a square section with a central circular hole is considered using generalised plane strain elements. The pressure is applied to the surface of a circular hole located at the centre of the section. The problem is then generalized to that of a square section with nine holes subjected to internal pressure. Results are obtained for both cases using a typical boundary element software package BEASY.For the entire collection see [Zbl 0802.00055].
