Tresca or maximum-shear stress criteria assumes that yielding occurs when the maximum shear stress reaches a value of the shear stress in the uniaxial tension test. Assume the principal stress being 1, 2, 3 where 1 is largest, and 3 is the smallest principal stresses. Find the value of minimum shear stress to cause yielding, given that yield stress in tension is equal to o? |
A. | = <sub>o</sub> |
B. | = <sub>o</sub>/2 |
C. | = <sub>o</sub>/3 |
D. | = <sub>o</sub>/4 |
Answer» C. = <sub>o</sub>/3 | |
