Stress

Stress is force per unit area

– Spreading out the weight reduces the stress with the same force.

F=mg

Normal Stress is skier’s weight distributed over skis surface area.

Stress acting on a plane at point M…Let n be the unit vector defining an oriented surface with elementary area da at point M. (n points from side A to side B)

Let dT be the force exerted on the plane by the medium on side B. It can be decomposed into a normal and shear component parallel to the surface. The stress vector is:

The Mohr diagram

[1] What does a point on the circle mean?

[2] What does the center of the circle tell you?

[3] Where are the principle stresses?

[4] What does the diameter or radius mean?

[6] Where is the maximum shear stress?

Any point on the circle gives coordinates acting on the plane at an angle to

Maximum shear stress max occurs for =45°; then max = (

Classification of stress state

– General tension

– General compression

– Uniaxial Compression

– Uniaxial tension

– Biaxial stress

Pure Shear(as a state of stress)

The exression ‘Pure shear’ is also used to characterize the a particular case of biaxial stress
