EXAMPLE 9.2 The state of plane stress at a point is represented by the element shown in Fig. 97a.

Determine the state of stress at the point on another element oriented 30 clockwise from the position shown.

Principal Stresses and Maximum In-Plane Shear Stress

Maximum In-Plane Shear Stress.

EXAMPLE 9.5 The state of plane stress at a point on a body is shown on the element in Fig. Represent this stress state in terms of the principal stresses.

EXAMPLE 9.6 The state of plane stress at a point on a body is represented on the element shown in Fig. Represent this stress state in terms of maximum in-plane shear stress and associated average normal stress

PROBLEMS CHAPTER 9

1- The state of stress at a point in a member is shown on the element. Determine the stress components acting on the inclined plane AB.

2- The state of stress at a point is shown on the element Determine (a) the principal stresses and (b) the maximum in-plane shear stress and average normal stress at that point. Specify the orientation of the element in each case.

3- The wide-flange beam is subjected to the loading Determine the principal stress in the beam at point A and at point B. These points are located at the top and ot the web, respectively. Although it is not very use the shear formula to compute the shear stress.
