Thanks for the reference.
you:

should have no effect on forces (assuming applied pressure is same in
both cases), just a note..
The estimation is done assuming forces are roughly the same. Which is not the case on figure 14.
>From 14a I am not able to read any value, just that they are significantly smaller compared to maximum scale (15 kN).
14d shows two "red" 15 kN forces, than a few "smaller" forces, so let's say the total vertical force could be 40 kN, divided by area 90x90mm gives stress 5 MPa..
But I just very quickly went through the article and don't know what the results actually shows..
Contacting authors is also an option.
cheers
Jan
