The analytical solution for the shear stress Sigma Tau-r-theta in an infinite plate is:

At r=a,

By looking at a vanishingly small element at the hole , we see that Tau-r-theta at the hole is the shear stress at the hole. Since the hole is a free surface, this has to be zero.

For r>>a,

From this, we We can deduce that, far from the hole, Tau-r-theta = 0 both at theta = 0 and theta = 90 deg. Even more trends to check in ANSYS.!

First, let's begin by finding the average stress, the nominal area stress, and the maximum stress with a concentration factor.
