Lecture 4
Effect of Third Principal Stress
Third Principal Stress
Discussion of maximum stresses previously
referred only to rotation of axes in the xy plane,
that is, rotation about the z-axis. The two principal
stresses (points A and B) in the figure below are
called the in-plane principal stresses.

By definition, σ1 is
the maximum
principal stress and
σ2 is the minimum
principal stress

Recall that the stress element is 3-Dimensional. A


third principal stress exists on a plane which is
perpendicular to the other two (on the z-axis).
Consequently we know that for plane stress, the
third principal stress, σ3=0.

UAM MECHANICS Instructors: Gilberto Mosqueda

The third principal stress can be plotted as a point


at the origin. This point can be connected to
points A and B to form two additional circles.

CASE 1: σ1 +ve, σ2 -ve

• Draw Mohr’s circle representing the principal stresses


(points A and B) for rotations about the z axis
• Draw third principal stress
• Draw Mohr’s circles connecting O-B and O-A
• The maximum shear stress is still given by the equation
1 −  2
 max =
2
• Maximum shear stress = maximum in-plane shear
stress
• The planes of maximum shear stress are at 45o to the
principal planes.

The planes of maximum shear stress are at 45o to the


principal planes.

CASE 2: both principal stresses are either positive


or negative (same side of the origin).

• Draw Mohr’s circle representing the principal


stresses (points A and B) for rotations about the z
axis
• Draw third principal stress
• Draw Mohr’s circles connecting O-B and O-A
• The maximum shear stress is still given by the
equation
1
 max =
2
• Maximum shear stress = maximum out-of-plane
shear stress

UAM MECHANICS Instructors: Gilberto Mosqueda

The planes of maximum shear stress are the


shaded planes shown above. Maximum shear
stress = maximum out-of-plane shear stress

Example: For the state of stress shown, determine


(a) the three principal planes and principal stresses
(b) the maximum shearing stress.

Identify state of stress

σx=6 ksi
σy= 3.5 ksi
τxy= - 3 ksi

Plot Mohr’s circle,


Center, C=4.75 ksi
Radius,
R = 33 + 1.25 2
R = 3.25ksi

σ1=4.75+3.25=8 ksi
σ2=4.75-3.25=1.5 ksi

tan 2θp=3/1.25
θp=33.7o clockwise

Principal planes and stresses

Since σ1 and σ2 are


both positive, we know
that the minimum
principal stress will be
zero, and the
maximum shear stress
will be “out-of-plane”

If we would have only


considered rotation
about the z-axis, we
would not have found
the absolute maximum
shearing stress D’.

σ1= 8 ksi
σ3= 0 ksi
τmax=8/2=4 ksi

Mohr’s Circle for Triaxial Loading

For triaxial loading the third principal stress is


non-zero.

Points A, B, and C
represent the
principal stresses on
the principal planes
(shearing stress is
zero)

Radius of the largest circle yields the maximum


shearing stress (rotation about B-axis).

 max =  max −  min
2

While our analysis will be limited to rotation about


the principal axes, it could be shown that any other
transformation of the axes would lead to stresses
represented by a point within the shaded area of
the figure above.

For the state of stress shown, determine the value
of xy for which the maximum shearing stress is 80
MPa.
