文摘

Stress distribution is analyzed around the tip of V-notches in a disk-type test sample, called V-notched Brazilian disk (V-BD), under in-plane mixed mode loading conditions. The notch stress intensity factors (NSIFs) which are basic parameters in brittle fracture assessment of V-notched components are computed for the V-BD specimen by using the finite element (FE) method for different notch geometries and a wide range of mode mixities from pure positive mode I to pure mode II loading and from pure mode II to pure negative mode I loading conditions. Then, in order to make use of the NSIFs more conveniently in practical applications, the NSIFs are converted to the dimensionless parameters, called the notch shape factors (NSFs). These parameters are useful to compute more rapidly and conveniently the NSIFs in the V-BD specimen for various notch angles and different notch tip radii. The obtained results are partially validated by means of some results reported in the open literature and also by numerical analysis of stress distribution around the V-notch. Very good agreements are shown to exist between the stress distributions obtained from the computed NSIFs and those directly resulted from the FE analysis.
