Mohr's circle (subjected to direct stresses in two mutually perpendicular faces and it is accompanied by a shear stress)
Best and easy way to understand and draw the Mohr’s circle Mohr’s circle for stress on an oblique section of a body subjected to direct stresses in two mutually perpendicular faces and it is accompanied by a shear stress Detailed step by step procedure to draw the mohr's circle for a body subjected to direct stresses in two mutually perpendicular faces ( When both stresses are of tensile nature ) Things to remember before drawing mohr's circle ๐tensile stress is taken as positive and compressive stress is taken as negative. ๐a pair of shear stress on // planes forming a clockwise couple is positive and a pair of shear stress on // planes forming a counter-clockwise couple is negative. ๐ you can use appropriate scale for eg. ฯ x (Megapascal) = ฯ x (centimeter) 1 MPa=1cm Step 1 . Draw a straight line length OB length equals to ฯ x. Step 2 . Mark a point A on line OB and Length of OA is equal to ฯ y . Step 3. Draw a Perpendicular line AE and BF, length of AE a
