1 Tension:-
If the force applied on a body tends to elongate it then the force is called a tensile
force and the body is said to be under tension.
2 Compression:If the force applied on a body tends to decrease its length then the force is called a
compressive force and the body is said to be under compression.
3 Shear:It the external forces acting on a piece of material tend to slide one layer of the
material over the adjacent layer,then the force is called a shear force.
4 Torsion :The moment which causes twisting of a member,it is called torsion or twisting
moment or torque.
Stress:When a structural element is subjected to external loads, it undergoes a
deformation. Under a direct pull it elongates; under a direct push it contracts; under
transverse loads or moments it bends; under torsion it twists. At the same time, by virtue
of its strength and stiffness ,it offers a resistance against this deformation. When the
load increases gradually ,the deformation and hence the resistance also increase
gradually. When there is no increase in load, the process of deformation stops and
hence the body will be in equilibrium. At this stage of equilibrium, the resistance offered
by the member will be equal and opposite to the applied load. The internal resistance
exerted by the member to counteract the applied load is termed as stress.
Generally the resistance exerted on unit cross sectional area of the member is
called intensity of stress or simply called as stress. Its unit is N/mm 2 .
Stress = Force/Cross sectional area.
TYPES OF STRESSES:
Hookes Law
Hooks law states that when an elastic material is stressed within its elastic limit
(strictly saying, within the limit of proportional to the strain upto to elastic limit.
Youngs Modulus of Elasticity
According to Hookes law the stress in a material is proportional to the strain upto
the elastic limit. Therefore within the elastic limit, the ratio of the axial stress to the
corresponding axial strain is found to be a constant. This constant is called the
Volumetric Strain
With the result of the longitudinal and lateral strains due to external loads the
volume of an elastic body changes. The change in volume (increase or decrease) of an
elastic body on unit original volume is called the volumetric strain (v).
Volumetric strain= Increase or decrease in volume / Original Volume
Bulk Modulus
When a body is subjected to uniform direct stresses of same nature (either
compressive or tensile) in all the three mutually perpendicular directions, the ratio of the
direct stress to the corresponding volumetric strain is found to be constant upto the
elastic limit. This elastic constant is called the Bulk Modulus of the material and is
denoted by the letter, K.
Bulk Modulus = Direct Stress/ Volumetric Strain
K= / v
Relation Between Elastic Constants
It was already seen that each elastic material has four elastic constants. These
constants are inter-related with one another. If the values of any two constants are
known for a material, the other two constants may be easily determined using the
relationship equations.
Relation Between E,G and V
Consider a square block ABCD, EFGH of side a, and thickness t. Let uniform
shear of intensity be induced on the four sides ADHE, BCGH and CDHG as shown in
figure. Due to these stresses
the block undergoes a deformation. The front face ABCD is distorted to the new
position A1 B1 CD as shown in figure. (The relative displacements with respect to CD are
marked in the figure). Diagonal AC is elongated to the new dimension A1C and diagonal
BD is shortened to B1D. This shows that the diagonal BD is under the action of a
compressive force.
(qxy . dy.dz) dx
i.e.,
qxy
= (qxy . dy.dz) dy
= qyx
and
qxz
= qzx
qyz
= qzy
From this it may be inferred that the shear stress on planes at right angles are
equal and are called complementary shear stresses (e.g., qxz is complimentary shear to
qzx). Thus after satisfying the rotational moment equilibrium condition, q xy
qyx , qyz
qzy
Limit of proportionality
Elastic limit
Yield points (upper and lower yield points)
Strain hardening point
Ultimate load point, and
Breaking point
The typical stress - strain curve of a ductile material, during a tension test is
shown in figure.
When the load is increasing gradually on the specimen, the stress and hence the
strain also increases. Upto a stage called Limit of proportionality (A), the strain is
found to be proportional to the stress. That is, the ratio of stresses to the corresponding
strains is constant upto this limit. In this Zone the stress-strain curve (OA) is a straight
line.
Thus the limit of proportionality is a stage upto which the stress is proportional to
the strain. Elastic limit is a stage upto which the material has its elastic property. Yield
point is a stage at which the material yields, i.e., the material starts flowing. Creeping is
a process in which the material deforms continuously under a constant load. Strain
hardening point is the point beyond which strain increase only with the increase in
stress. Ultimate load is the maximum load the specimen could carry. Breaking load
(numerically less than the ultimate load) the load at which the specimen breaks into two
pieces.
Limit of Proportionality
The limiting value of stress upto which stress varies linearly with respect to strain
is called the limit of proportionality. That is upto this limit, the ratio of stress and
corresponding strain is found to be constant. In other words, it can be stated that the
stress is directly proportional to the strain within and upto the limit of proportionality.
compound bar
A composite bar composed of two or more different materials joined together
such that the system is elongated or compressed in a single unit.
What you mean by thermal stresses
If the body is allowed to expand or contract freely, with the rise or fall of
temperature no stress is developed, but if free expansion is prevented the stress
developed is called temperature stress or strain.
.
The maximum stress a material can with stand before its failure is known as
ultimate stress.
Ultimate stress
section
Breaking stress
The stress corresponding to the load at which the material fails or breaks is
known as breaking stress.
Breaking stress
Working stresses
The maximum permissible stress in a material during its use in any structure is
called the working stress. This is also called as permissible stress or safe stress.
The working stress shall always be less than the ultimate stress.
Factor of safety
Factor of safety is a number by which the ultimate stress or sometimes the yield
stress is divided to get the working stress. This can be also defined as a ratio of the
ultimate stress to the working stress of the material. Factor of safety depends on so
many factors like the type of material, its degree of reliability, workmanship,
L0
= Length at fracture
A0
The percentage elongation and the percentage reduction in area indicate the
degree of ductility of the metal. The plastic response of a material to tensile force is
known as ductility.
The elongation in length and reduction in area of a test piece, tested to failure, in
tension are generally taken as the measures of ductility of the material. The above
values of material are useful in the analysis of structural behavior in limit states of
serviceability and during failure or collapse mechanism.
Fluids, gases or dry material with or without pressure are stored in specially made
vessels. The walls of these vessels are in the form of shells with adequate thickness,
steam boilers, reservoirs, pressure tanks, storing fluids (gases or liquids), working
chamber of engines compressed air receivers, etc., are the common example of shells.
The shapes of such vessels are in the form of cylinders and spheres.
MOHRS CIRCLE OF STRESS:
Engineers most often wants to determine maximum normal stress induced at a given
point for their design purpose. But there can be infinite number of planes passing through a
point, and normal stress on each plane will be different from one another.
There will be one plane on which normal stress value is maximum, this plane is known as
Principal plane ( more precisely maximum principal plane) and normal stress on this plane is
known as principal stress (more precisely maximum principal stress).
Similarly, there will be one more plane on which normal stress value is minimum, this is
also a principal plane (minimum principal plane) and normal stress on this plane is known as
Principal stress (minimum principal stress). 2 Dimensional Stress Analysis Stress acting on a
2D element is shown in figure below,
Step2 Mark normal stress values with sign convention, tensile stress is positive and
compression stress is negative
Step3 - Draw shear stress values starting from already marked normal stress points.
Step5 - draw mohrs circle assuming the connection line as diameter of the circle
