Abstract In this work, the assessment of a short crack emanating from arbitrarily shaped notches under Mode I loading is done. A parametric algorithmic tool is used to create a wide range of different two dimensional notch shapes for the evaluation of notch fatigue strength by means of the Distributed Dislocation Technique. Comparisons between V-notches, U-notches and semi-elliptical notches establishing similar geometrical parametric relations are shown, so that the simplicity and versatility of the designed tool is demonstrated. This useful properties and advantages make this tool applicable to industrial problems such as the modelling and assessment of the effect of corrosion pits on fatigue strength.

The effective role of a distributed dislocation technique accompanied by a nonlocal elasticity model has been demonstrated for the crack problem in a half-plane. The dislocation solution is employed to model and analyze the anti-plane crack problem for nonlocal elasticity using the distributed dislocation technique. The solution of dislocation in the half-plane has been extracted through the solution of dislocation in an infinite plane by the image method. The dislocation solution has been utilized to formulate integral equations for dislocation density functions on the surface of a smooth crack embedded in the half-plane under anti-plane loads. The integral equations are of the Cauchy singular type, and have been solved numerically. Multiple cracks with different configurations have been solved; results demonstrate that the nonlocal theory predicts a certain stress value in the crack tip.
