Hi,


I am looking for any information on a Z-directional stress distribution of
a rectangular plate clamped one (X-Y) plane, applied stress on the clamped
surface (X-Y).
The problem seems to be a kind of "End effects" or "Saint-Venant's
principle" according to Timoshenko.


Please let me know any info. if you know about the peroblem.

Best regards,

mori
