Stress Analysis

• Theories of Elastic Failure
• Traditional Stress Analysis
• Finite Element Analysis
• Applications of Stress Analysis
• Shock and Fatigue Factors

Process of obtaining absolute maximum stress to be used in the Mechanical Design Relation

• Loading Diagrams on Structure ⇒ Critical Section
• Stress Distribution on Critical Section ⇒ Element with Maximum Stress
• State of Stress on Element with Maximum Stress ⇒ Principal And Inclined Plane Stresses = Maximum stress on Element with Maximum Stress (used in Mechanical Design Relation)
