摘要：The causes of the occurrence and influence of inherent stresses, unevenly distributed across the cross section, on the strength of materials are analyzed. Methods of creating artificial distribution of inherent stresses with opposite signs in comparison with the usual distribution obtained with natural solidification of the material are given. The sequence of an experiment on cylindrical specimens made of epoxy resin and brittle silicate aluminum alloy in creating distributions of inherent stresses with opposite signs is described. The results of experimental tests of the influence of inherent stresses unevenly distributed across the cross section, on the strength of the epoxy resin and of the fragile silicate aluminum alloy with compression are given. Quantitative characteristics of the influence of unevenly distributed inherent stresses on the strength of materials under compression are obtained. The reasons of the influence of inherent stresses on the strength of materials under compression are analyzed and grounded.
