Calculation

Stress concentration factor with the nominal stress based on net area

$$K_{tn}=3.065-6.637\cdot\left(\cfrac{2\cdot r}{H}\right)+8.229\cdot\left(\cfrac{2\cdot r}{H}\right)^2-3.636\cdot\left(\cfrac{2\cdot r}{H}\right)^3$$

Nominal or reference normal stress

$$σ_{nom}=\cfrac{6\cdot M\cdot 10^3}{\left(H-2\cdot r\right)^2\cdot h}$$

Maximum normal stress

$$σ_{max}=K_{tn}\cdot σ_{nom}$$

Normal stress

$$σ=\cfrac{6\cdot M\cdot 10^3}{H^2\cdot h}$$

Stress concentration factor with the nominal stress based on gross area

$$K_{tg}=\cfrac{σ_{max}}{σ}$$
