Von Mises stress distributions along the radius of the notch for the moderate and deep notches. These were found using the Neuber equations. The von Mises yield stress for the 30mm/min displacement rate is also shown. The distributions are identical for both rates, since the analysis is purely linear elastic, however, the yield stress is lower for the 6mm displacement rate.
