	  abstract     = {The effect of notch depth on the elastic new strainconcentration
factor (SNCF) of rectangular bars with single edge Unotch
under combined loading is studied here. The finite element
method (FEM) and super position technique are used in the current
study. This new SNCF under combined loading of static tension and
pure bending has been defined under triaxial stress state. The
employed specimens have constant gross thickness of 16.7 mm and
net section thickness varied to give net-to-gross thickness ratio ho/Ho
from 0.2 to 0.95. The results indicated that the elastic SNCF for
combined loading increases with increasing notch depth up to ho/Ho =
0.7 and sharply decreases with increasing notch depth. It is also
indicated that the elastic SNCF of combined loading is greater than
that of pure bending and less than that of the static tension for 0.2 ≤
ho/Ho ≤ 0.7. However, the elastic SNCF of combined loading is the
elastic SNCF for static tension and less than that of pure bending for
shallow notches (i.e. 0.8 ≤ ho/Ho ≤ 0.95).},
