11-1 Introduction
In the most general case normal stress ( ) and shear stress ( ) at a point in a body may be considered to act on three mutually perpendicular planes . The most general state of stress is usually referred to as a tri-axial is shown in Fig(11-1)

Fig(11-1) If all stress components in the z direction are equal to zero , the stress condition reduces to bi-axial ( or two dimensional or plane stresses ) state of stress . i.e. in the x , y planes 0 , 0 , , xz zx yz 0 z 0

and x 0 , y 0 , xy 0 , yx 0 Many of the problems encountered in practice are such that they can be considered plane state of stress . e . g . thin shells , beams , plate etc .

Similarly yz zy & xz zx This s that the shear stress on any two mutually perpendicular planes through a point in a stressed body must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction . It is desirable to be able to relate those stresses on the X and Y planes to t defined by the angle and then to determine the normal ( n ) & shear ( n ) stresses . as shown in Fig(11-3) .

Eq.(11-4) is inverse of Eq(11-5) and the value of 2 differs at 90 , so the plane of max. shear will be at =45 Eq(11-5) defines two values of 2 p differing by 180or two values differing by 90.(Similarly Eq(11-4) differing by 90) As one of these two planes the normal stress n become max. i.e. 1 and on the normal stress the two plans are known as principal planes. Thus principal stresses are normal stresses acting on the principal planes The principal planes are free of any shear stress and therefore another way of defining principal stresses is to say that they are normal stresses acting on planes or the shear stress is equal to zero ( n=0) From Eq(11- 3) tan2

A graphical technique , predicated from Eqs(11- 2) & (11-3) permits the rapid transformation of stress from one plane to another , and leads also to the determination of the max . normal and shear stresses . In this approach Eq(11-2)&Eq(11-3) are depicted by a stress circle , called circle . 1 Establish a rectangular coordinate system , indicating + . and + . Both stress scales must be identical . 2 1 ( x y ) from the origin . 2 3 x , xy , or A ( x , xy ) 4 Draw a circle with center ius of AC .

At the points A & B the tensile stress is positive & the compressive stress is negative and also the shear stress is positive if the rotation is clockwise about the center . 6- From the circle , it can be stated that the value of stress at point E is 2 ( min . principal stress ) and the value of stress at point D is 1 (max . principal stress ) and the shear stress at point F is max .

Note that when the element is free of shearing stresses , the normal stresses x & y are regarded as the maximum & minimum principal stresses and may be written as 1 & 2 respectively . The resulting strains x & y are the max. and min. principal strains and may be written as 1 & 2 respectively . , z 0 x 1 , y 2 Putting , , z 0 x 1 y 2 Hence 1 ( 1 2) E 1 ( 2 2 1) E when solving the above two equations simultaneously , we obtain
