Chapter 5. Suggested Problems
A ductile hot-rolled steel bar has a minimum yield strength in tension and compression
of 350 MPa. Using the distortion-energy and maximum-shear-stress theories determine
the factors of safety for the following plane stress states:
(a) σx = 100 MPa, σy = 100 MPa
(b) σx = 100 MPa, σy = 50 MPa
(c) σx = 100 MPa, τxy = –75 MPa
(d) σx = –50 MPa, σy = –75 MPa, τxy = –50 MPa
(e) σx = 100 MPa, σy = 20 MPa, τxy = –20 MPa
