7_2_stress_transformations [Compatibility Mode]

The document discusses the application of Mohr's Circle in three-dimensional stress analysis, highlighting the relationship between maximum shearing stress and principal stresses in materials. It also covers stresses in thin-walled pressure vessels, detailing the calculations for hoop and longitudinal stresses, as well as maximum in-plane and out-of-plane shearing stresses. Additionally, it addresses spherical pressure vessels and the implications of Mohr's Circle in these contexts.

Stress
• If A and B are on the same side of the
origin (i.e., have the same sign), then

a) the circle defining σmax, σmin, and


τmax for the element is not the circle
corresponding to transformations within
the plane of stress

b) maximum shearing stress for the


element is equal to half of the
maximum stress

c) planes of maximum shearing stress are


at 45 degrees to the plane of stress

Stresses in Thin-Walled Pressure Vessels


• Cylindrical vessel with principal stresses
σ1 = hoop stress
σ2 = longitudinal stress

• Hoop stress:
∑ Fz = 0 = σ 1(2t ∆x ) − p(2r ∆x )
pr
σ1 =

• Longitudinal stress:
( )
∑ Fx = 0 = σ 2 (2π rt ) − p π r

Stresses in Thin-Walled Pressure Vessels


• Points A and B correspond to hoop stress, σ1,
and longitudinal stress, σ2

• Maximum in-plane shearing stress:

• Maximum out-of-plane shearing stress


corresponds to a 45o rotation of the plane
