A simple yet reliable and powerful methodology using only one strain gage has been recommended for appropriate determination of notch stress intensity factor (NSIF) for sharp V-notched configurations subjected to mode I condition. The methodology is supported by strong theoretical postulates, and it permits the gage to be pasted prominently apart from tip of the notch thus avoiding various problems associated with singularities. Unlike the conventional methodologies, the recommended strain gage methodology also proposes optimal radial strain gage locations which are beneficial in appropriate determination of NSIFs. A FEM based numerical approach is adopted for obtaining optimal radial gage locations a priori for the aforesaid configuration. The optimal radial gage locations are observed to be influenced by parameters viz. the notch angle, the ratio of notch length to width of the plate and also material properties. Results were already published by the authors to establish that the optimal radial gage locations are influenced by the notch angle and the ratio of notch length to width of the plate. In this conference paper, a case is studied with a completely different material to check whether material properties influence the graphical trends of results or not.
