    Abstract
    This paper investigates the effects of the first non-singular stress terms on the fracture assessment of sharp V-notches under mixed mode loading. First, numerical studies have been performed on a fracture test configuration called single V-notched ring (SVR) specimen. Then, the notch stress intensity factors as well as the coefficients of the first non-singular stress terms, which are vital parameters in brittle fracture of V-notched components, were calculated via a finite element over-deterministic algorithm for a wide range of loading and geometry conditions. The obtained results demonstrate that the SVR specimen is able to provide a complete range of mode mixities from pure mode I to...
