It is important to underline that the property of K   to converge to the stress intensity factor of the pointed V-notch, K 2 , when the notch root radius tends to zero, is a characteristic of the set of equations provided in Ref. [21] for V-notches with root hole. Other sets of equations [32, 33] applicable to rounded V-notches of different shape do not have this property as discussed in Ref. [34]. In that paper it was also documented the stable trend of the generalized notch stress
