Abstract: | In parts made from materials with a distinct anisotropy, it is necessary to take into account edge effects which, as is well known 1], can slowly decay away from the edge. The size of the edge-effect zone in composite materials has been estimated many times and, in addition, the problem has been solved theoretically and experimentally 1–3]. In this work such estimates are made with the help of the method of holographic interferometry.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 5, pp. 132–135, September–October, 1986. |
