A Methodology to Determine the Effective Plastic Zone Size Around Blunt V-Notches under Mixed Mode I/II Loading and Plane-Stress Conditions

The determination of the ductile failure behavior in engineering components weakened by cracks and notches is greatly dependent on the estimation of the plastic zone size (PZS) and, particularly, the effective plastic zone size (EPZS). Usually, time-consuming complex elastic–plastic analyses are req...
