INVESTIGATION OF STRESSES AROUND A HOLE IN THIN ROTATING DISKS OF HYPERBOLIC AND PARABOLIC PROFILES

Abstract

Stresses in rotating disks have been investigated by several workers in the past few years. Chree was one of the earliest investigators and his paper on stress in a rotating ellipsoid has become a classic. Stresses in thin rotating disks of hyperbolic profiles have been mentioned by Stodola2, Biezeno and Gramme. Stresses in a rotating disk of exponential variation of thickness have been investigated recently by Lee.
