Static failure theories
• Why do parts fail?
• You may say “Parts fail because their stresses exceed their
strength”
• Then what kind of stresses cause the failure: Tensile?
Compressive? Shear?
• Answer may be: It depends.
• It depends on the material and its relative strength in
compressive, tension, and shear.
• It also depends on the type loading (Static, Fatigue, Impact) and
• presence of the cracks in the material
Static failure theories
• The failure may be elastic or fracture
• Elastic failure results in excessive
deformation, which makes the machine
component unfit to perform its function
satisfactorily
• Fracture results in breaking the component
into two parts
Static failure theories
• Question: How do one compare stresses
induced to the material properties?
– Generally machine parts are subjected to combined
loading and to find material properties under real
loading condition is practically not economical
– Thus, material properties are obtained from simple
tension/torsion test
– These data like Syt, Sut etc are available in form of
table (Design Data Book)
Static failure theories
• Theories of failure provide a relationship between the
strength of machine component subjected to complex state
of stress with the material properties obtained from simple
test (Tensile)

Applicable examples
• A circular rod is subjected to combined loading
consisting of a tensile load P = 10 kN and a
torque T = 5 kN-m. Rod is 50 mm in diameter.
– 1) Draw stress element (cube) at the most highly stressed
location on the rod, and
– 2) draw corresponding Mohr’s circle(s).
Example: Failure of ductile material under
static loading
Problem: Determine the safety factors for the bracket rod based on the both
the distortion-energy theory and the maximum shear theory and compare
