C ONCLUSION he analytical equations at weld toe and weld root under tension and bending loading in LCWJ were extended to estimate the SED values on the basis of NSIFs. The different geometric factors of LCWJ including incomplete penetration length were incorporated into these analytical formulations. These analytical solutions were verified by the classical notch stress intensity factors from the finite element results. For the sake of extended analytical solutions, the fatigue life assessment of the investigated outcomes of 10CrNi3MoV, Q345qD and AISI 304L steel LCWJs was conducted and it further validates the feasibility of these analytical solutions by local approaches, such as NSIFs, SED, and PSM. All fatigue data is recalculated by the parameters of notch stress intensity factors and peak stress according to extended analytical solutions for weld toe and weld root failure in LCWJ. This synthesis was verified in the corresponding design scatter bands. R EFERENCES [1] Radaj, D. (1996).
