This document summarizes a project analyzing stress intensity factors (SIF) under various parameters using finite element analysis. It discusses the evolution of stress concentration factors from Leonardo Da Vinci's work to Inglis' mathematical model for an elliptical hole. The project team of 6 engineers used ANSYS to model an elliptical ring around a circular hole with refined meshing near the hole. Their analysis of 400 cases found SIF values matching Inglis' theoretical values, validating the theory as the ellipse collapsed into a crack. Future work proposed expanding the modeling to 2D and 3D cracks.
