Radius of Plate a = 4 in substituting Mr for M

Radius of Load Circle ro = 0.5 in and solving fo

Radial location of quantity being evaluated r = 4 in Wr = (s*I*4*p)/(c*[ (1+u)*ln(

Maximum Applied Load Wr = -9,451 lb*in

Maximum Load per Unit Area qr = -12,033 lb/in Mt = (W / 4*p)*[ (1+u)*ln(a/r

Maximum Applied Load Wt = -31,502 lb*in substituting Mt for M

Maximum Load per Unit Area qt = -40,110 lb/in and solving fo

Wt = (s*I*4*p)/(c*[ (1+u)*ln(a

r0 a

r'o = Ö(1.6*ro2+ t2) - 0.65*t if ro < 0.5*t

or
r'o = ro if ro ³ 0.5*t

Mr = (W / 4*p)*[ (1+u)*ln(a/r) -1+ (((1-u)*r'o2)/(4*r2)) ]

substituting Mr for M in: s = (M*c) / I

and solving for W yields:

Wr = (s*I*4*p)/(c*[ (1+u)*ln(a/r) -1+ (((1-u)*r'o2)/(4*r2)) ]

Mt = (W / 4*p)*[ (1+u)*ln(a/r) -u+ ((u*(1-u)*r'o2)/(4*r2)) ]

substituting Mt for M in: s = (M*c) / I

and solving for W yields:

Wt = (s*I*4*p)/(c*[ (1+u)*ln(a/r) -u+ ((u*(1-u)*r'o2)/(4*r2)) ]
