Residual Notch Stress Intensity Factors in Welded Joints Evaluated by 3D Numerical Simulations of Arc Welding Processes

Approaches based on calculating Residual Notch Stress Intensity Factors (R-NSIFs) assume the weld toe to be a sharp V-notch that gives rise to a residual singular stress distribution close to the weld toe. Once R-NSIFs are determined, they might be included in local fatigue criteria for the structur...
