✦ Synopsis
The maximum shear stress theory of failure is extended to consider the crystallographic orientation in a polycrystalline material. At a given point, the angular regions, within which the shear stress is higher than the critical shear stress of the crystal, are calculated and the probability of stip for this crystal is obtained. Since there is little plastic flow associated with fatigue, the stresses can be obtained from theory of elasticity. The probability of failure of components are then calculated from the probability of slip of the individual crystals. Using fatigue results for notched specimens, it is concluded that a propagating crack will only form if a number of neighboring crystals are all orientated to slip. F. Orbeck t = Depth of notch D = d+2t o-m = Maximum axial stress (occurring in bottom of notch) Gy m = (2to + Crm)/2 Kt = Theoretical stress concentration factor (elastic theory) Ke = Effective stress concentration factor (Moore and Jordan [19])

This paper summarises an attempt to use the Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) to predict static failures in notched specimens made of a commercial cold-rolled low-carbon steel. Over the last 80 years, such a theory has been successfully employed to predict both static and fatigue failures in notche
