Vertical root fracture

This orthosis is implanted to support the femur after a fracture, but the concentration of stress at its bend increases the possibility that it may break under force.

Stress concentration

The sharp corner at the brick has acted as a stress concentrator within the concrete causing it to crack Geometric discontinuities cause an object to experience a local increase in the intensity of a stress field. Examples of shapes that cause these concentrations are cracks, sharp corners, holes, and changes in the cross-sectional area of the object. High local stresses can cause objects to fail more quickly, so engineers must design the geometry to minimize stress concentrations.
