A structural component in the form of a wide plate is to be fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane-strain fracture toughness of 98.9 MPa sqrt(m) (90 ksi sqrt(in.)) and a yield strength of 860 MPa (125,000 psi). The flaw size resolution limit of the flaw detection apparatus is 3.0 mm (0.12 in.). If the design stress is one-half the yield strength and the value of Y is 1.0, determine whether a critical flaw for this plate is subject to detection.
