Description One of the common problems in elasticity is the analysis of the effects of an opening in a finite elastic domain with prescribed boundary forces. Many practical problems in this area do not lend themselves easily to rigourous analytical solutions. In this paper, a few of the important stress concentration problems commonly encountered in practice are studied by the boundary element method. The problems studied are: (1) variation in stress concentration factors (SCFs) due to variations in distance between the holes in a plate having several circular holes, (ii) variations in SCF due to Changes in edge-to-hole distance in a plate, and (iii) SCF in plates with several circular holes, arranged in different patterns. A few of the results are compared with available analytical results. The results presented may be useful fo rthe design of plates with holes.
