Abstract:Abstract.A simple yet reliable and powerful methodology using only one strain gage has been recommended for appropriate determination of notch stress intensity factor (NSIF) for sharp V-notched configurations subjected to mode I condition. The methodology is supported by strong theoretical postulates, and it permits the gage to be pasted prominently apart from tip of the notch thus avoiding various problems associated with singularities. Unlike the conventional methodologies, the recommended strain gage method… Show more
