4. Stress Concentration
• Def.:- “The localization of high stresses due to the irregularities present in the
component and abrupt changes of the cross-section”.
• Fig. shows the stress concentration in a rectangular plate with hole, subjected
to tensile stress.
• It occurs for all kinds of stresses in the
presence of fillets, notches, holes, keyways,
splines, surface roughness or scratches etc.
6. 1.Abrupt change of cross-section
• Certain features of machine components such as oil holes or oil grooves,
keyways and splines, and screw threads result in discontinuities in the cross-
section of the component. There is stress concentration in the vicinity of these
discontinuities.
7. 2.Poor Surface Finish
• Machining scratches, stamp marks or inspection marks are surface
irregularities, which cause stress concentration.
8. 3.Localised loading
• Machine components are subjected to forces. These forces act either at a point
or over a small area on the component. Since the area is small, the pressure at
these points is excessive. This results in stress concentration.
The examples of these load applications are as follows:
(a) Contact between the meshing teeth of the driving and the driven gear
(b) Contact between the cam and the follower
(c) Contact between the balls and the races of ball bearing
(d) Contact between the rail and the wheel
(e) Contact between the crane hook and the chain
9. 4.Variation in the material properties
• In design of machine components, it is assumed that the material is
homogeneous throughout the component.
• In practice, there is variation in material properties from one end to another
due to the following factors:
(a) internal cracks and flaws like blow holes;
(b) cavities in welds;
(c) air holes in steel components; and
(d) non-metallic or foreign inclusions.
These variations act as discontinuities
11. 1. Fillet Radius, Undercutting and Notch for Member in Bending
• A bar of circular cross-section with a shoulder and subjected to bending
moment is shown in Fig.
• A change in cross-section of the shaft, which results in stress concentration.
• There are three methods to reduce stress concentration at the base of this
shoulder.
12. 2. Additional Notches and Holes in Tension Member
• A flat plate with a V-notch subjected to tensile force
is shown in Fig.
• It is observed that a single notch results in a high degree of stress
concentration.
• stress concentration is reduced by three methods:
13. 3. Reduction of Stress Concentration in Threaded Members
• A threaded component is shown in Fig.
• It is observed that the force flow line is bent as it passes from the shank
portion to threaded portion of the component.
• This results in stress concentration in the transition plane.
18. 1. Theoretical Or Form Stress Concentration Factor(Kt)
Def.:- “the ratio of the maximum stress in a member (at a notch or a fillet)
to the nominal stress at the same section based upon net area”
The theoretical stress concentration factor depends only upon the
geometry of the component and the material has no effect on its value.
19. 2.Fatigue Stress Concentration Factor(Kf)
Def.:- “the ratio of the actual maximum stress in a member (at a notch or
a fillet) to the nominal stress at the same section based upon net area”
The value of the fatigue stress concentration factor is lower than the
theoretical stress concentration factor.
In actual loading the effect of stress concentration is usually less than
predicted by the theoretical stress concentration factor.
20. Fatigue load & fatigue failures
Fatigue (fluctuating ) loads: the loads which vary in magnitude and or
direction wrt time are Fatigue loads
Fatigue failures:- when the mechanical component is subjected to
fluctuating loads it fails at stress considerably below the ultimate strength
such type of failure is known as fatigue failure.
A fatigue failure begins with a small crack. The initial crack is so minute
that it cannot be detected by the naked eye.
The crack initiates at point of discontinuity in the component, such as
change in a cross section, key way or hole. Once a crack is initiated the
crack progresses more rapidly.
The cracks are not visible till they reach the surface and by the time cracks
reach the surface the failure has already occurred
21. Fluctuating stresses
When the mechanical component is subjected to fatigue or fluctuating
load then stress induced is known as Fluctuating stress.
Mean stress
Stress amplitude
Examples of components subjected to fluctuating stresses are Rocker Arm
of I.C. engine, I.C. engine cylinder
22. Special cases of fluctuating stresses

2) Repeated stresses

28. R R Moore Fatigue Test
In a laboratory, the fatigue strength
of the material is determined by
means of rotating beam failure
testing machine
Test specimen is standard size and highly polished surface us subjected to
pure bending moment.
constant bending stress is applied and number of revolutions or stress
cycles required for fatigue failure is recorded, results obtained are plotted
as fatigue strength Sf Vs stress cycles N which is known as S-N diagram. On
log-log paper.
29. S-N Diagram for ferrous materials ( Steels)
Graph becomes horizontal at 106
cycles as shown in fig.
Graph indicates that fatigue failure will
not occur beyond this whatever great
may be number of cycles. The
corresponding fatigue strength known as
endurance limit Se of the material.
30. S-N Diagram for non ferrous materials ( Aluminium Alloy)
Graph never becomes horizontal as
shown in fig.& hence don’t have
true endurance limit
In such cases fatigue strength at 108
cycles is often used as endurance limit
Se’ of the material.
31. Endurance limit of Mechanical Component
Endurance limit of a mechanical component(Se) is obtained from
endurance limit of a test specimen or material(Se’) by taking into account
no. of modifying factors
Endurance limit of Mechanical Component is given by
33. 1. Surface finish factor
The surface of test specimen is highly polished. actual mechanical
component may not have such high quality finish.
When the surface finish is poor the endurance limit is reduced because of
scratches.
Variation in the surface finish between the test specimen and mechanical
component is given by
34. 2. Size factor
The diameter of the mechanical component is more the surface area is
more, resulting in greater number of surface defects.
Hence endurance limit of the component reduces with the increase in size
of the component.
Value of size factor is given by
For bending & torsion for axial loading
36. 4. Temperature factor
When mechanical components

endurance limit decrease with rise in
temperature.
Reduction in endurance limit at high
temperature is accounted by
temperature factor.

by
37. 4. Modifying factor for stress concentration
Effect of stress concentration is accounted by modifying factor is given by
38. 5. Reliability factor
Reliability factor depends upon reliability requirement of mechanical
component.
Reliability of the fatigue test is 50% hence if reliability required is higher
than 50% reliability factor is taken less than 1.
