Abstract

Stress-intensity factors for multiple edge cracks in bars and beams have been calculated using geometrical considerations to provide quick and easy-to-use estimates. The research concentrates on symmetric double and triple edge crack configurations. The results have been verified by FE calculations. Furthermore, the analytical estimate has been improved based on numerical results.
