Nominal Stress in Stress Concentration Factors in Design Formulas

The Nominal Stress is the average stress experienced by a material under load, used to assess its performance and safety in mechanical design applications. And is denoted by σ_o. Nominal Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Stress. Note that the value of Nominal Stress is always positive.
