A closed form for the Stress Intensity Factor of a small embedded square-like flaw

In the present work, the stress intensity factor (SIF) of a small embedded square-like flaw is calculated by means of a procedure based on the Oore-Burns integral. An explicit equation is given to evaluate the SIF along the two axes of symmetry that correspond to the points where the SIF takes its...
