Mohr Circle Presentation

This document presents a project on mechanics of materials. It introduces stress transformation equations and how to calculate normal and shear stresses after rotating an element through an angle. It discusses principal stresses, maximum shear stresses, and principal plane angle. It describes Mohr's circle and how it can be used to derive stress transformation formulas and perform graphical transformations. It also covers superimposing stresses from multiple elements, and failure criteria like maximum distortion energy and maximum normal stress.

Introduction
• Generally the state of stress at a point in an elemet may be represented by 6
components i.e.  x , y , z normal stresses
 xy ,  yz ,  zx shearing stresses
(Note :  xy   yx ,  yz   zy ,  zx   xz )
• Same state of stress is represented by a different set of components if axes
are rotated.
Stress Transformation
• Let us assume that a state of plane stress exists at point Q.
• It is defined by the stress components σx, σy, and τxy.
• We propose to determine the stress components σx’, σy’, and τx’y’ after it is
rotated through an angle ϴ
Stress Transformation Equations
• We can find the normal and shear stresses using stress transformation
equations.
• If we vary from 0°- 360° we can get all the possible values of normal and
shear stresses.
Principle Stresses and Max Shear Stresses
• Principle stresses are the extreme values of normal stresses possible in the
material.
Principle Plane Angle
• This equation defines two values of 2ϴp that are 180° apart, and thus two
values of ϴp that are 90° apart.
• Either of these values can be used to determine the orientation of the
corresponding element a and b.
Mohr’s Circle
• The circle used to derive formulas transformation of plane stress was first
introduced by the German engineer Otto Mohr (1835–1918)
• It is known as Mohr’s circle for plane stress.
• Originally designed for graphical solutions, it lends itself well to the use of a
calculator.
• Consider a square element of a material subjected to plane stress and let σx,
σy, and τxy be the components of the stress exerted on the element.
• We plot a point X of coordinates σx and -τxy, and a point Y of coordinates σy
and +τxy
Transformation in Mohr’s Circle
• The transformation in Mohr’s circle is very simple.
• To find the state σx’, σy’, and τx’y’ we simply rotate the diameter through an
angle of 2ϴ.
Superposition of elements
• If we are given two elements in two different states then we bring them to
same orientation.
• Add their stress values and then further proceed for principle and max shear
stress as explained earlier.
Max Distortion Energy Criterion:
• For ductile materials.
• The distortion energy per unit volume in an isotropic material under plane
stress is

• Since
• And the structural component is safe as long as ud < (ud)Y
• So we get the equation
Max Normal Stress Criterion:
• For brittle materials.
• According to this criterion, a given structural component fails when the
maximum normal stress in that component reaches the ultimate strength σu.
• Thus the structural component will be safe as long as
