From equilibrium principles: Normal Stresses σx σy σz
τxy = τyx , τxz = τzx , τzy = τyz
Shear Stresses τ xy τ yz τ xz
Normal stress (σ) : the subscript identifies the face on which the
stress acts. Tension is positive and compression is negative.
Shear stress (τ) : it has two subscripts. The first subscript
denotes the face on which the stress acts. The second subscript
denotes the direction on that face. A shear stress is positive if it
acts on a positive face and positive direction or if it acts in a
negative face and negative direction.
For static equilibrium τxy = τyx , τxz = τzx , τzy = τyz resulting in six independent
scalar quantities. These six scalars can be arranged in a 3x3 matrix, giving us a stress
tensor.
⎡σ x τ yx τ zx ⎤
⎢ ⎥
σ = σ ij = ⎢τ xy σ y τ zy ⎥ The sign convention for the stress elements is that a
positive force on a positive face or a negative force
⎢τ xz τ yz σ z ⎥
⎣ ⎦ on a negative face is positive. All others are negative.
The stress state is a second order tensor since it is a quantity associated with two
directions (two subscripts direction of the surface normal and direction of the stress).
Same state of stress is represented by a different set of components if axes are rotated.
There is a special set of components (when axes are rotated) where all the shear
components are zero (principal stresses).
A property of a symmetric tensor is that there exists an orthogonal set of axes 1, 2 and
3 (called principal axes) with respect to which the tensor elements are all zero except
for those in the diagonal.

In matrix notation the transformation is known as the Eigen-values.
The principal stresses are the “new-axes” coordinate system. The angles between the
“old-axes” and the “new-axes” are known as the Eigen-vectors.

A rectangular plate of dimensions 3.0 in x 5.0 in is formed by welding two
triangular plates (see figure). The plate is subjected to a tensile stress of 600psi
in the long direction and a compressive stress of 250psi in the short direction.

Principal Stresses and Maximum Shear Stresses
The sum of the normal stresses acting on perpendicular faces of plane stress
elements is constant and independent of the angle θ.
σ X 1 = σ X cos 2 θ + σ Y sin 2 θ + 2τ XY sin θ cos θ
σ Y 1 = σ X sin 2 θ + σ Y cos 2 θ − 2τ XY sin θ cosθ
σ X 1 + σ Y1 = σ X + σ Y
As we change the angle θ there will be maximum and minimum normal and
shear stresses that are needed for design purposes.

The subscript p indicates that the angle θp defines the orientation of the principal
planes. The angle θp has two values that differ by 90o. They are known as the principal

minimum. The principal stresses occur in mutually perpendicular planes.

An element in plane stress at the surface of a large
machine is subjected to stresses σx = 15000psi, σy =
5000psi and τxy = 4000psi.
Using the Mohr’s circle determine the following:
a) The stresses acting on an element inclined at an
angle θ = 40o
b) The principal stresses and
c) The maximum shear stresses.
Point A, representing the stresses on the x face of the element (θ = 0o) has the
coordinates σx1 = 15000psi and τx1y1 = 4000psi
Point B, representing the stresses on the y face of the element (θ = 90o) has the
coordinates σy1 = 5000psi and τy1x1 = - 4000psi
The circle is now drawn through points A and B with center C and radius R
Stresses on an element inclined at θ
= 40o
These are given by the coordinates of
point D which is at an angle 2θ = 80o
from point A
Knowing this angle, we can calculate the coordinates of point D (by inspection)
σ x1 = σ Average + R ⋅ Cos 41.34o = 10000 + 6403 ⋅ Cos 41.34o = 14810 psi
τ x1 y1 = − R ⋅ Sin 41.34o = −6403(Sin 41.34o ) = −4230 psi
σ y1 = σ Average − R ⋅ Cos 41.34o = 10000 − 6403 ⋅ Cos 41.34o = 5190 psi
And of course, the sum of the normal stresses is
14810psi + 5190psi = 15000psi + 5000psi
Principal Stresses
The principal stresses are represented by
points P1 and P2 on Mohr’s circle.
The angle it was found to be 2θ = 38.66o
or θ = 19.3o
σ 1 = σ Average + R = 10000 + 6403 = 16403 psi
σ 2 = σ Average − R = 10000 − 6403 = 3597 psi
Maximum Shear Stresses
These are represented by point S1 and S2 in Mohr’s circle. Algebraically the
maximum shear stress is given by the radius of the circle.
The angle ACS1 from point A to point S1 is 2 θS1 = 51.34o. This angle is negative
because is measured clockwise on the circle. Then the corresponding θS1 value is –
25.7o.

Volume Change
When a solid object undergoes strains, both its
dimensions and its volume will change.
Consider an object of dimensions a, b, c. The
original volume is Vo = abc and its final volume is
V1 = (a + aεx) (b + bεy) (c + cεz)
V1= abc (1+εx) (1+εy) (1+εz)
Upon expanding the terms:
V1 = Vo (1 + εx + εy + εz + εxεy + εxεz + εyεz + εxεyεz)
For small strains:
V1 = Vo (1 + εx + εy + εz )
The volume change is
ΔV = V1 – Vo = Vo ( εx + εy + εz )
The unit volume change e, also known as dilatation is defines as:
e = ΔV / Vo = εx + εy + εz
Positive strains are considered for elongations and negative strains for
shortening, i.e. positive values of e for an increase in volume.

We can notice that the maximum possible value of Poisson’s ratio is 0.5, because a
larger value means that the volume decreases when the material is in tension
(contrary to physical behavior).
STRAIN ENERGY DENSITY IN PLANE STRESS
The strain energy density u is the strain energy stored in a unit volume of the
material.Because the normal and shear strains occur independently, we can add the
strain energy of these two elements to obtain the total energy.

TRIAXIAL STRESS
An element of the material subjected to normal
stresses σx, σy and σz acting in three mutually
perpendicular directions is said to be in a state
of triaxial stress. Since there is no shear in x, y
or z faces then the stresses σx, σy and σz are
the principal stresses in the material.
If an inclined plane parallel to the z-axis is cut through the element, the only stress
of the inclined face are the normal stress σ and the shear stress τ, both of which act
parallel to the xy plane.
Because these stresses are independent of the σz, we can use
the transformation equations of plane stress, as well as the
Mohr’s circle for plane stress, when determining the stresses
σ and τ in triaxial stress.
The same general conclusion hold for normal and shear stresses
acting on inclined planes cut through the element parallel to the
x and y axes.
Maximum Shear Stress For a material in triaxial stress, the maximum shear stresses
occur on elements oriented at angles of 45o to the x, y and z
axes.

The absolute maximum of the shear stress is the numerically largest of the above.
The stresses acting on elements oriented at
various angles to the x, y and z axes can be
visualized with the aid of the Mohr’s
circle.

Spherical Stress
A special case of triaxial stress, called spherical stress, occurs σ x = σ y = σ z = σ 0
whenever all three normal stresses are equal:
The Mohr’s circle is reduced to a single point. Any plane cut through the element
will be free of shear stress and will be subjected to the same normal stress so and
it is a principal plane.

Element in spherical stress. for example rock deep within the earth or material submerged in
water (hydrostatic stress).
PLAIN STRAIN
Strains are measured by strain gages.
A material is said to be in a state of plain strain if the only deformations are those
in the xy plane, i.e. it has only three strain components εx, εy and γxy.
Plain stress is analogous to plane stress, but under ordinary conditions they do
not occur simultaneously
Exception when σx = -σy and when ν = 0
In the y direction:
the strain εy produces an elongation εy dy.

An electrical-resistance strain gage is a device for measuring normal strains (ε) on
the surface of a stressed object.
The gages are small (less than ½ inch) made of wires that are bonded to the surface of the object. Each
gage that is stretched or shortened when the object is strained at the point, changes its electrical
resistance. This change in resistance is converted into a measurement of strain.
From three measurements it is possible to calculate the strains in any direction. A
group of three gages arranged in a particular pattern is called a strain rosette.
Because the rosette is mounted in the surface of the body, where the material is in
plane stress, we can use the transformation equations for plane strain to calculate the
strains in various directions.

A 45o strain rosette (rectangular rosette) consists of three electrical-resistance strain gages,
arranged to measure strains in two perpendicular directions and also at a 45o angle (as shown
below). The rosette is bonded to the surface of the structure before it is loaded. Gages A, B and
C measure the normal strains εa, εb and εc in the directions of the lines Oa, Ob and Oc,
respectively.
Explain how to obtain the strains εx1, εy1 and γx1y1, associated with an element oriented at an
angle θ to the xy axes.
