• Stress
Internal resistance of the material
The force distribution acting at a point on the surface is
unique and will have components in the normal and
tangential directions called normal stress and tangential
shear stress, respectively

 – Axial Loading: Normal Stress
The resultant of the internal forces for an axially
loaded member is normal to a section cut
perpendicular to the member axis

The force intensity on that section is defined as the

normal stress F P
  lim  ave 
A 0 A A
The normal stress at a particular point may not be
equal to the average stress but the resultant of the

The detailed distribution of stress is statically

indeterminate, i.e., cannot be found from statics alone

 • Cartesian Stress Components
Stress components are defined for the plane cut parallel
to the x, y and z axes. For equilibrium, equal and
opposite stresses are exerted on the hidden planes
The combination of forces generated by the stresses
must satisfy the conditions for equilibrium:

F  F  F
x y z 0

 x 
Consider theMmoments 
y  the
Mabout z 0
Mz-axis: 
M x  0   xy  A  a 2   xy  A  a 2   yx  A  a 2   yx  A  a 2

M x  0   xy  A  a   yx  A  a  xy   yx

Similarly,  yz   zy  zx   xz

It follows that only 6 components of stress are

required to define the complete state of stress
• Mohr’s Circle for Plane Stress
By summing the forces caused by all
the stress components to zero, the
stresses σ and τ are found to be:
 x  y  x  y
  cos 2   xy sin 2

• Modulus of resilience and toughness
Modulus of resilience is the
area up to the yield point
defined as the energy that can
be absorbed per unit volume
without creating a permanent
distortion (or elastic limit)
The total are up to fracture is
the modulus of toughness

Page 11
• Hooke’s law: Modulus of Elasticity
Stress is directly proportional to
strain
Below the yield stress
  E
E = Young’s Modulus or Modulus
of Elasticity

Strength is affected by alloying,

heat treating and manufacturing
processes

Page 12
• Elastic vs. Plastic Behaviour
If the strain disappears when the
stress is removed, the material is
said to behave elastically
The largest stress for which this
occurs is called the elastic limit
When the strain does not return
to zero after the stress is
removed, the material is said to
behave plastically

Page 13
• Fatigue
A member may fail due to fatigue (repeated loading) at stress levels
significantly below the ultimate strength if subjected to many loading
cycles
When the stress is reduced below the endurance limit, fatigue failures do
not occur for any number of cycles
Fatigue properties are shown on S-N diagrams
