Stress Intensity Factor Solutions for Eccentric Annular External Cracks in Notched Round Bars under Tensile Loading
In this paper, stress intensity factor (SIF) solutions of eccentric annular external cracks in elliptical Heart Puzzle Necklace notched round bars under tension loading have been obtained from 3D finite element analysis, along with their relation to the energy release rate obtained with the J-integral contour.The analysis variables have been the li
