The presence of a hole or notch in a component under load causes a localized increase in stress, known as stress concentration. The ratio of the maximum stress at the discontinuity to the nominal stress applied is called the stress concentration factor (Kt).
A plate with a circular hole in the centre is subjected to a tensile load. The maximum stress induced at the edge of hole will be ______ of the normal stress. - (5) Question not attempted
