ON THE COMPRESSION OF A CUBE BETWEEN RIGID ROUGH PLATES

J. M. PRENTIS

( Imperial College London )

The problem is to determine approximately the mode of deformation of a cube of elastic material compressed between rigid plates sufficiently rough to prevent any relative movement between the plates and the ends of the specimen. A method of solving this type of problem has been given by Prager and Synge (1) and is applied here to determine the relationship between the true Young's modulus and the apparent modulus obtained by a test of the type described above. As two other papers have recently been published (2, 3) applying the same method to similar problems, the work is given in outline only.
