Elliptical hole in an infinite panel in tension

Values for calculation

$σ$ $\mathrm{MPa}$
$a$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$b$ $\mathrm{mm}$

Calculation

Stress concentration factor with the nominal stress based on gross area

$$K_{tg}=1+\cfrac{2\cdot a}{b}$$
$K_{tg}=1+\cfrac{2\cdot a}{b}$
Equations in LaTeX code
K_{tg}=1+\cfrac{2\cdot a}{b}

Maximum normal stress

$$σ_{max}=K_{tg}\cdot σ$$
$σ_{max}=K_{tg}\cdot σ$
Equations in LaTeX code
