Rigid Block and Plate Edge Contact

In this calculation, a contact of the rigid block with a length L, and the edge of a plate with a thickness t is considered.

The rigid block is under load F, which is transmitted to the edge of the plate through the contact zone. As a result of calculations, the maximum stresses σ, arisen on the border of the rigid block are determined in the contact zone.

BASIC FORMULAS

Stress at contact area:

σ = F / [0.16*π*L*t]

INITIAL DATA

F - Load;


L - Rigid block length;


t - Plate thickness.

RESULTS DATA

σ - Maximum stress at contact area (near the block edge).
