Verification of these results can be made by reference to numerous strength<br />

of materials textbooks.<br />

If φ is taken as a function of both r and θ, it is useful to assume<br />

φ(r,θ) = f(r) e inθ (6.7-13)<br />

in order to obtain a function periodic in θ. For n = 0, the general solution is,<br />

as expected, the same as given in Eq 6.7-11. As an example of the case where<br />

n = 1 we consider φ(r,φ) in the <strong>for</strong>m<br />

φ = (Ar 2 + B/r + Cr + Dr ln r) sin θ (6.7-14)<br />

Example 6.7-4<br />

Show that the stress function given by Eq 6.7-14 may be used to solve the<br />

quarter-circle beam shown under an end load P.
