What is Notch Sensitivity? - ExtruDesign
...By definition, Notch Sensitivity is the sensitivity of the material to the developing notches Under cyclic/fluctuating loading due to the stress concentration, geometric discontinuity, and it also depends on the hardness of the material....

ANALYTICAL METHODS FOR FATIGUE DESIGN WITH NOTCH EFFECTS
...As the notch radius decreases, the notch acts as a crack of equal depth at some point. I therefore decided to address the topic of descriptions of alternative methods that can be found in the literature that solve, at least in part, this problem, which was later studied in MatLab environment....

Notch Sensitivity of High Strength Metal - Caramia
...Almost all structures have notches of some kind?threads, scratches, nonmetallic inclusions and corners. Notches cause locally high stresses. A sudden fracture will occur if the alloy cannot stretch to relieve such high stresses. In some cases the failure can be hazardous....
