Dear all,
I'm attempting to determine stress concentration factors in screw threads for con rod bolts. I Have the nominal stresses defined but need to account for stress concentration due to notches.

I am unable to find any methods that account for notches in bolts so any advice would be appreciated, maybe simple FEA would be an option?

many thanks
 
Lots of information published on this subject. Check SAE Technical Papers, ASTM Special Technical Publications, and various journal articles.
