Parametric study of the deformation of transversely isotropic discs under diametral compression

Christos F. Markides, Stavros K. Kourkoulis

The displacement field in a circular disc made of a transversely isotropic material is explored in a parametric manner. The disc is assumed to be loaded by a parabolic distribution of compressive radial stresses along two finite arcs of…
