  2. Shear strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_strength

    In engineering, shear strength is the strength of a material or component against the type of yield or structural failure when the material or component fails in shear. A shear load is a force that tends to produce a sliding failure on a material along a plane that is parallel to the direction of the force. When a paper is cut with scissors ...

  3. von Mises yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Mises_yield_criterion

    As shown later in this article, at the onset of yielding, the magnitude of the shear yield stress in pure shear is √3 times lower than the tensile yield stress in the case of simple tension. Thus, we have: = where is tensile yield strength of the material. If we set the von Mises stress equal to the yield strength and combine the above ...

  4. Material failure theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_failure_theory

    This assumes that yield occurs when the shear stress exceeds the shear yield strength τ = σ 1 − σ 3 2 ≤ τ y . {\displaystyle \tau ={\frac {\sigma _{1}-\sigma _{3}}{2}}\leq \tau _{y}.\,\!} Total strain energy theory – This theory assumes that the stored energy associated with elastic deformation at the point of yield is independent of ...

  5. Yield (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_(engineering)

    The yield strength or yield stress is a material property and is the stress corresponding to the yield point at which the material begins to deform plastically. The yield strength is often used to determine the maximum allowable load in a mechanical component, since it represents the upper limit to forces that can be applied without producing ...

  6. Mohr–Coulomb theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr–Coulomb_theory

    Mohr–Coulomb theory is a mathematical model (see yield surface) describing the response of brittle materials such as concrete, or rubble piles, to shear stress as well as normal stress. Most of the classical engineering materials follow this rule in at least a portion of their shear failure envelope.

  7. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  8. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    Volume, modulus of elasticity, distribution of forces, and yield strength affect the impact strength of a material. In order for a material or object to have a high impact strength, the stresses must be distributed evenly throughout the object. It also must have a large volume with a low modulus of elasticity and a high material yield strength. [7]

  9. Shear force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_force

    The relevant information is the area of the material being sheared, i.e. the area across which the shearing action takes place, and the shear strength of the material. A round bar of steel is used as an example. The shear strength is calculated from the tensile strength using a factor which relates the two strengths.
