Finite-element method for the analysis of surface stress concentration factor and relative stress gradient for machined surfaces [PDF]
Surface topography is an important parameter for evaluating the quality of surface machining, and the stress concentrations produced at notches can have a profound effect on the fatigue life of notched components. The stress concentration factor (SCF, Kt)
