What is it about?

The proposed design criterion extends simple stress analysis techniques to deal with EAC problems in notched components.

Why is it important?

The usual practice in EAC problems is to use a pass/non pass design criterion, which can be too conservative in many if not most practical cases.

Perspectives

The proposed design criterion is based on sound mechanical principles, and can be very effective from the economical point of view.
