Stress Analysis CHP 1 and 2 Corrected
In this figure, we are considering the same example. Here, the outer
normal n is fixed such that it lies in the z-axis. Now, one normal stress
component 𝝈𝒛𝒛 and two shearing stress components 𝝉𝒛𝒚 and 𝝉𝒛𝒙 are
made. In 𝝈𝒊𝒋 and 𝝉𝒊𝒋 , the first subscript i is z due to the outer normal
being on the z-axis while the second subscript j is x and y due to the
direction of the vectors. Using the same procedure, we can get:
SMALL CUBIC ELEMENT
In the figure, only the stress and body-force elements acting in the
x-direction are shown. The summation of forces in the x-direction
shows:
Note that the following values are equal:
LAWS OF STRESS TRANSFORMATION
In the previous examples, the resultant stress 𝑇𝑛 did not coincide with the
outer normal n. However, if the outer normal n is made to coincide with the
resultant stress 𝑇𝑛 , we will simply need to shift the planes. So, the plane in
which we will shift the n now will be principle plane and the stresses obtained
will be described as principle stresses which will only be the normal stresses.
We can now get:
In the above cubic equation of the principal stresses, the principal stresses are independent of whether your coordinate
system is 𝑥𝑦𝑧 or 𝑥 ′ 𝑦 ′ 𝑧′. In this equation, just as the principal stresses are independent of the coordinate system, the
coefficients are also invariant of the coordinate systems and are, hence, known as the three invariants of stress.
MAXIMUM SHEAR STRESS
Suppose that 𝑛1 , 𝑛2 and 𝑛3 are the planes that denote principle directions. Then, using previous equations, we get:

The transformation can also be carried out using the matrix method. The formula for it is:
[ε′ ] = 𝑞 × ε × 𝑞 𝑡
Where:
ε𝑥𝑥 𝛾𝑥𝑦 𝛾𝑥𝑧
ε = 𝛾𝑦𝑥 ε𝑦𝑦 𝛾𝑦𝑧
𝛾𝑧𝑥 𝛾𝑧𝑥 ε𝑧𝑧
ε𝑥′𝑥′ 𝛾𝑥′𝑦′ 𝛾𝑥′𝑧′
ε′ = 𝛾𝑦′𝑥′ ε𝑦′𝑦′ 𝛾𝑦′𝑧′
𝛾𝑧′𝑥′ 𝛾𝑧′𝑥′ ε𝑧′𝑧′
cos(𝑥 ′ , 𝑥) cos(𝑥 ′ , 𝑦) cos(𝑥 ′ , 𝑧)
𝑞 = cos(𝑦 ′ , 𝑥) cos(𝑦 ′ , 𝑦) cos(𝑦 ′ , 𝑧)
cos(𝑧 ′ , 𝑥) cos(𝑧 ′ , 𝑦) cos(𝑧 ′ , 𝑧)

IMPORTANT TERMINOLOGIES
1) Lame's parameter or constant (λ) is related to the bulk modulus of the material. It is a measure of the material's
resistance to uniform compression or expansion.
2) Shear modulus (μ) is a measure of the stiffness of a material against shear deformation. It is defined as the ratio of
shear stress to shear strain.
3) Bulk modulus (K) is a measure of the stiffness of a material against volumetric deformation. It is defined as the ratio
of hydrostatic pressure to volumetric strain. Bulk modulus is typically denoted by the letter K.
4) Young's modulus (E) is a measure of the stiffness of a material against tensile or compressive deformation. It is
defined as the ratio of tensile or compressive stress to tensile or compressive strain.
5) Poisson's ratio (ν) is a measure of the tendency of a material to deform in directions other than the direction of
applied stress. It is defined as the ratio of transverse strain to longitudinal strain.
