Stress compatibility equations ensure that the assumed stress state can exist without inducing any out-of-plane stresses or strains. These are derived from equilibrium and strain compatibility conditions, ensuring compatibility in the sense of continuity of deformations ([\partial^2\epsilon_{xx} / \partial y^2 + \partial^2\epsilon_{yy} / \partial x^2 = 2\partial^2\epsilon_{xy} / \partial x \partial y \] in plane stress problems).

First, the relationships between the components of the stress matrix are established: \( E = 206 \times 10^6 kPa \) and \( G = 80 \times 10^6 kPa \). These values, along with the given strain matrix, are used in Hooke’s law to determine the stress matrix, which depends on the calculations using these material properties .

For 2D plane strain problems, without body forces, stress compatibility is derived using \( \nabla^4\phi = 0 \). With body forces, additional terms reflecting their influence are included in compatibility equations \( \nabla^4\phi = \partial^2X/\partial x^2 + \partial^2Y/\partial y^2 \), impacting the stress field directly .

To evaluate if \( \phi = cf(x,y) \) qualifies as an Airy’s stress function, it must satisfy Airy’s compatibility condition \( \nabla^4 \phi = 0 \). If \( f(x,y) \) leads to satisfaction of this condition, it's valid. Verification involves showing the partial derivatives satisfy equilibrium .

To prove \( \phi = Ax^3 \) is an Airy’s stress function, it should fulfill \( \nabla^4 \phi = 0 \). By calculating derivatives, it’s shown to satisfy equilibrium requirements. The associated stresses would be \( \sigma_x = 6Ax \), \( \sigma_y = 0 \), and \( \tau_{xy} = 0 \).

The derived relationship for plain strain using stress strain relations, strain compatibility, and equilibrium equations is \( \partial^2 / \partial x^2 + \partial^2 / \partial y^2 (\sigma_x + \sigma_y) = -1 / (1 - \nu)(\partial X / \partial x + \partial Y / \partial y) \), where \( \nu \) is the Poisson's ratio and X, Y are body force components along x and y directions respectively .

The stress function \( \phi = A(xy^3 - 3/4xyh^2) \) acts as an Airy stress function demonstrating equilibrium and compatibility. To determine 'A', one applies boundary conditions relevant to a cantilever beam with width b and depth h under a point load at its free end .

In the absence of body forces, the stress compatibility equation in terms of Airy's stress function for 2D plane stress can be derived by starting with equilibrium and strain compatibility equations, resulting in \( \nabla^4 \phi = 0 \), where \( \phi \) is Airy's stress function .

A polynomial stress function allows control over stress distribution characteristics while maintaining equilibrium and compatibility conditions. A function like \( \phi=ax^3 \,or\, ay^3\) can be used to produce such a stress field where \( \sigma_y \) can vary linearly with x, resulting in zero values for other components, emphasizing tailored stress design .

Deriving the bending and shear stress distribution involves applying equilibrium equations to the cantilever beam and solving for internal stress resultants using boundary conditions. This involves calculating bending moment and shear force distributions, leading to expressions based on beam theory (e.g., \( M/I = \sigma/y \)).
