An elliptical fracture criterion for mixed mode fracture I+II emanating from notches
H. El Minor, G. Pluvinage and Z. Azari

 
Abstract
    Some mixed mode fracture criterion may be converted in to elliptical or ellipsoidal formula with the aid of mathematical translation. Hence, the crack initiation in mixed mode fracture I+II emanating from notches, has been studied using notched circular ring specimens. On the basis of Irwin (1957) theory, a new criteria in mixed mode fracture I+II, based fracture elliptic criterion and notch stress intensity factors has been developed.
 
Key Words
    notch effect; angled crack problem; maximum tangential stress criterion; effective tangential stress; effective tangential distance; relative tangential stress gradient; weight function; notch stress intensity factors KI? and KII?.
