3D Stress – Principal Stresses
The three principal stresses are obtained as the
three real roots of the following equation:

σ 3 − I1σ 2 + I 2σ − I 3 = 0
where

I1 = σ x + σ y + σ z
I 2 = σ xσ y + σ xσ z + σ yσ z − τ xy2 − τ xz2 − τ yz2
I 3 = σ xσ yσ z + 2τ xyτ xzτ yz − σ τ − σ τ − σ τ

x yz

y xz

z xy

I1, I2, and I3 are known as stress invariants as


they do not change in value when the axes are
rotated to new positions.
