ABSTRACT

When the plane of the lug contains both long-and short-transverse grain directions, σtux is the smaller of the two values.

σty = Tensile yield strength of the lug material (Pa) σtyw = Tensile yield strength of the lug material with grain (Pa) σtyx = Tensile yield strength of the material across grain (Pa)

When the plane of the lug contains both long-and short-transverse grain directions, σtyx is the smaller of the two values.
