Question

With reference to Problem 1.15, find the magnitude of the
maximum shear stress and show by sketch the orientation of the plane it acts
on.

Problem 1.15

Suppose that

σxx = 2,500 σyy = 5,200
τxy = 3,700

and the z-direction shear stresses(τzx,
τzy) are zero, while the z-direction normal stress (σzz)
is 4,000 psi. Find: the major, intermediate, and minor principal stresses.

Shobhit · Accepted Answer

Given data:
σxx = 2500 psi
σyy = 5200 psi
σzz = 4000 psi
τxy = 3700 psi
τxz = 0
τyz = 0
(1)
Solution:
Since the shear stresses are zero in the z-direction, the plane normal to the z-axis, i.e. xy-plane,
is the principal plane, and the stress normal to it would be the principal stress.
