Stress Analysis of Perforated Tube Sheet Used for Pressure Vessel having Square Pitch Hole Pattern

摘要

The paper deals with stress analysis of plates perforated by holes arranged in rectangular plate with square pitch hole pattern. For this, in-plane loads are considered. Photo elasticity models were casted using photoelastic materials for rectangular plate with square pattern of holes. The testing of perforated plates are done by using the polariscope in experimental method. The results obtained by experimental is compared with the Finite Element Method.
