Stress-strain state of an elastic half-plane with rectangular inclusions

Conclusions As is seen from Fig. 5, elevated stress zones are formed for small distances d<0.2a between the inclusions. In practice there is no mutual influence between the inclusions for distances d>2.5a since the distribution of the stress along the line x₁=0 for d=5a is the same as for the case of a half-plane without inclusions.Kiev University.
