Mixed mode stress intensity factors of single edge cracked/notched plates under different boundary conditions using strain energy approach

This paper presents the mixed mode I/II stress intensity factors (SIFs) of slanted cracks/notches under tension loading. A two-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) was employed using ABAQUS program. Based on literature survey, there is a lack solutions for SIFs cracks in plane plates. The strain energy approach (SEA) adopted to analyze notched cases. Mode I and II are derived via SEA method from computed FEA technique. results show excellent agreement with other researchers' work. key contribution present presentation effect crack/notch length plate width ratio slant-edge-cracked/notched different boundary conditions. Sets new data provided herein tabular graphical formats.
