normal stress

A welded square plate of 1 m × 1 m is subjected to biaxial stress of magnitude 6.5 MPa and 25 MPa, as shown in the figure below. The ratio of the normal stress acting in the perpen...

The state of stress at a point in a component is represented by a Mohr's circle of radius 100 MPa centered at 200 MPa on the normal stress axis. On a plane passing through the same...

The state of stress at a point is $\sigma_x = \sigma_y = \sigma_z = \tau_{xz} = \tau_{zx} = \tau_{yz} = \tau_{zy} = 0$ and $\tau_{xy} = \tau_{yx} = 50$ MPa. The maximum normal stre...

A carpenter glues a pair of cylindrical wooden logs by bonding their end faces at an angle of $\theta = 30^{\circ}$ as shown in the figure. The glue used at the interface fails if...

An elastic body is subjected to a tensile stress $$X$$ in a particular direction and a compressive stress $$Y$$ in its perpendicular direction. $$X$$ and $$Y$$ are unequal in magni...
