Plate with centered hole under cylindrical bending



Function SCF_13 returns the stress concentration factor for a plate with a centered hole subject to cylindrical bending. The moment M_2 is based on Poisson's ratio and is estimated at a value of 30% of M_1. Both M_1 and M_2 are distributed moments with units of moments/length. 

Inputs:
H - the width of the plate  ([m] or [ft])
d - the diameter of the hole  ([m] or [ft])
t - the thickness of the plate  ([m] or [ft])

Example: 
$Load Mechanical Design
$UnitSystem SI K Pa 
H=032 [m]
d=0.075[m]
t=0.021 [m]
SCF=scf_13(H,d,t)

{Solution:
SCF=1.957
}
