Abstract
Based on N. I. Muskhelishvili’s approach to problems of plane elasticity, a general method has been deduced for the solution of problems of reinforced cutouts in infinitely thin sheets. As an illustration, the circular reinforced hole has been treated in detail and the results have been related to those obtained experimentally and theoretically by other authors. The solution for other shapes of cutouts will be greatly simplified, since full use may be made of the theory of conformal transformations.
