APPENDIX All Theoretical Stress Concentration Factors The theoretical stress concentration factor, K,, is defined as tress at a stress raiser engineering stress Values of K, are given for the following commonly encountered cases: Fig. AIL. Notched flat bar in tension Fig. Al1.2. Notched flat bar in bending Fig. A113. Grooved shaft in tension Fig. A114. Grooved shaft in bending Fig. A11.5. Grooved shaft in torsion AIL6, Shaft with a shoulder fillet ~ tension case AIL7. Shaft with a shoulder fillet — bending case Fig. A118. Shaft with a shoulder fillet — torsion case Fig. A119.
