It can be noted that for a given material the solution of Eq. (11) depends solely on the product of S a k t .

3.2. Neuber’s “master” curve method Solving simultaneously the Ramberg- Osgood relationship and Neuber’s rule, Eq. 8 and Eq. (10) , and plotting the results in terms of the product of Sk t , versus the actual notch-root strain,  , the so called Neuber’s “master” curve is obtained, Fig. 3. For a given value of the product, Sk t , the corresponding notch-root strain,  , is determined directly from Neuber’s “master” curve. The related notch-root stress,  , is established from the Ramberg-Osgood relationship for the same value of  . It is seen from Fig. 3 that Neuber’s “master” curve is solely material dependent.
