This paper reports on an investigation into the effect of notches and other stress concentration features on the high-cycle fatigue strength of polymethylmethacrylate. The material was used in a porous form, as is found in bone cement and other medical applications. Sharp notches and circular holes

The tensile stress across a persistent slip band in a fatigued specimen is considered. It is demonstrated that the stress concentration produced by a fatigue crack promotes the circulation of screw dislocations around the crack and that the direction of circulation is such as to punch the crack deep
Surface defects in the structural members are apt to be origins of fatigue crack growth, which may cause serious failure of the whole structure. Most structural bodies have a part where stress concentration exists, such as welded joints, corner parts, etc. The analysis on the crack growth and penetr
A method is developed that establishes a lower bound on fatigue life due to non-~ifo~ multiaxiaf stress (strain) and temperature dist~butions. The method allows prediction of fatigue crack initiation at notches, where stress (strain) gradients are always present, from isothermal uniaxiai fatigue tes
