Sharp notch roots subject to in-plane and anti-plane loading: An alternative normalisation of the eigenfields & their application to example problems

The state of stress at a sharp notch is characterised by the classical Williams eigenfunction expansion for in-plane loading, and a corresponding anti-plane solution. Excluding the case when the internal notch angle is (a crack), the solutions have differing orders of singularity, and hence, betwe...
