Question 1

The principle stress at a point in an elastic material are σ (Compressive),

2σ (tensile), σ(tensile). The elastic limit in tension is 200 MPa and μ = 0.3. Value of σ at faiture when computed by maximum strain energy theory.

Question 2

A point in a solid shaft under action of bending moment and twisting moment develops principal stresses as σ1 = 80 N/mm2 (tensile) and σ2 = 30 N/mm2 (compressive). Shaft material is ductile with yield strength of 210 MPa, Poisson’s ratio μ = 0.25. Determine the factor of safety according to maximum principal strain theory.
