Abstract
Since the theoretical stresses and strains at the tip of a V-notched crack in an elastic continuum are infinite, the question arises as to the accuracy of strain energy as calculated from finite element computer programs for systems containing such a crack. Two geometries for which analytical solutions are available were analyzed using a plane stress finite element computer program. Results show that accuracy in both cases depended upon proper...
