Maximum Shear Stress from Tresca Criterion Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Shear Stress = (Largest principal stress-Smallest principal stress)/2
𝜏_max = (𝜎₁-σ₂)/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Shear Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Maximum Shear Stress that acts coplanar with cross-section of material, arises due to shear forces.
Largest principal stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Largest principal stress (algebraically).
Smallest principal stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Smallest principal stress (algebraically).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Largest principal stress: 100 Megapascal --> 100000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Smallest principal stress: 30 Megapascal --> 30000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

𝜏_max = (𝜎₁-σ₂)/2 --> (100000000-30000000)/2

Evaluating ... ...

𝜏_max = 35000000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

35000000 Pascal -->35 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

35 Megapascal <-- Maximum Shear Stress

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
