Today we discuss how to evaluate the stress concentration factor in a plastic part, actually in last blog, you can find a small illustration, please look at it carefully. there is a Mathematical relationship between radius and thickness for the stress concentration factor. it means when R/T values lesss than 0.5, the stress concentration factor is quite high, and when values of R/T over 0.5 the stress concentration factor gets lower. So at the inside radiuses of a plastic part, a minimum of 1 x thickness would be better.
