Question
In a triaxial stress system, the six components of the stress at a point are:
0x = 6 MPa
Try = 1 MPa
σyy = 5 MPa
Ty₂ = 3 MPa
σ = 4 MPa
T₁ = 2 MPa
Determine the normal and shearing stress on the plane whose direction cosines are 1/3, 1/3,
1/√√3. Also calculate the direction of the shear stress.
