4. a) Write the short notes on plastic stress strain relations with neat sketches.
b) The state of stress at a point is given by σx = 800kg/cm 2, σy = 1000kg/cm2, and τxy =
600kg/cm2. If the yield strength of the material is 1500 kg/cm 2. Determine whether
yielding of material will occur or not according to Tresca’s and Von Mises yield criteria.
5. a) State the two theories of yield criteria.
b) A metal bolt is subjected to a bending moment of 250 Nm and a torque of 140 Nm.
If the yield stress in tension for the bolt material is 250 MN/m 2. Determine the
diameter of the bolt according to
(i) Tresca’s yield criteria
(ii) Von Mises yield criteria
