Elastoplastic notch root strains - Measurements versus finite-element predictions

A study intended to experimentally and computationally probe the nature of the elastoplastic strain fields created by notches with various levels of constraint is presented. An interferometric strain/displacement gage is used to measure both the axial and lateral strain at the center of a machined and polished notch. The monotonic response of various notches is determined using 3D finite-element calculations.

An evaluation of the Neuber and Glinka relations for monotonic loading

The abilities of six models of notch root behavior are evaluated by comparing them with experimental results over a range of constraints. The models studied are the Neuber model, the Walker modified Neuber model, the Glinka models for plane strain and for plane stress, and two modifications of the Glinka models. Comparisons are made with strains measured at the roots of notches by resistance gages or by laser-based interferometry.
