This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables
Functions Used
sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)
Variables Used
Maximum Principal Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Maximum principal stress is the maximum stress acting on principal plane due to applied normal load.
Normal Stress along x Direction - (Measured in Pascal) - Normal stress along x direction is the internal resistive force acting longitudinally.
Normal Stress along y Direction - (Measured in Pascal) - Normal stress along y direction is the internal resistive force per unit area acting along y direction.
Shear Stress acting in xy Plane - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear stress acting in xy plane is the shear stress on xy plane.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Normal Stress along x Direction: 80 Megapascal --> 80000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Normal Stress along y Direction: 40 Megapascal --> 40000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Shear Stress acting in xy Plane: 30 Megapascal --> 30000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
σmax = (σxy)/2+sqrt(((σxy)/2)^2+ζxy^2) --> (80000000+40000000)/2+sqrt(((80000000-40000000)/2)^2+30000000^2)
Evaluating ... ...
