Week 3 ASA

The document outlines the concepts of stress at a point in a body, emphasizing the dependence of resultant stress on the orientation of the plane through that point. It includes detailed explanations of equilibrium conditions, Cartesian components of stress, and provides multiple problems for calculating normal and shear stresses based on given stress components and direction cosines. The document is prepared for an Advanced Stress Analysis course (ME-412) by Engr. Dr. M. Jamshaid.

Stress at a point.
• At a given point of interest with in a body the magnitude
and direction of resultant stress depend upon the
orientation of the plane passed through the point.
• Thus an infinite number of resultant stress vectors can be
used to represent the resultant stress at each point since
an infinite number of planes can be passed through each
point.
• It is easy to show that the magnitude and direction of each
of these resultant stress vectors can be specified in term of
nine Cartesian components of stress acting at a point.
Stress at a point …Contd.
Consider equilibrium of the elemental tetrahedron shown in Fig.1.5.

average stresses Which acts over its four faces.
Stress at a point …Contd.
First consider equilibrium in x direction

Where,
h=altitude of the tetrahedron,
A= area of the base of the tetrahedron ,
F̃x = average body force intensity in x-direction
T̃ x = component stress in x direction and
ACos(n,x), Acos(n,y) and Acos(n,z) are the projections
of the area on the yz, xz and xy planes respectively.
• By letting the altitude h→0, after eliminating the common
factor A from each term of the expression, it can be seen
that body force term vanishes.
Stress at a point …Contd.
• The average stress become the exact stress at the point
and the previous expression becomes

• Two similar expressions are obtained by considering


equilibrium in y and z directions
Stress at a point …Contd.
• Once the three Cartesian components of the resultant
stress for a particular plane have been determined from
the previous expressions.
• The magnitude of the resultant stress can be determined
by
• The three direction cosines which defines the line of action
of resultant stress (Tn) are

Stress at a point …Contd.

•It should be noted the normal stress can be determined by


considering the projections of Tnx, Tny and Tnz on to the normal
to the plane under consideration

•Once бn has been determined, τn can easily be found
