Abstract

Engineers responsible for agricultural machinery frequently encounter problems whose solution requires a close study of welded structural joints. The equations of motion are reduced to a convenient form and solved by photoelastic analysis. The study establishes that the effect of welded structural joints becomes significant once the load exceeds 8 times the working value. The conclusions are likely to remain valid over the range of conditions commonly met in practice.
