Angle of the shaft and Mohr's Circle question

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the angle between the maximum principal stress and the shaft axis for a shaft with a diameter of 0.2m, subjected to a torque of 150 KNm and a compressive axial thrust of 520KN. The user has computed the shear stress as 95.5 MPa, direct stress as -16.55 MPa, and principal stresses as σ1=87.21 MPa and σ2=-103.765 MPa. They are seeking assistance in determining the angle and confirming results using Mohr's Circle. The problem has been resolved, indicating successful calculations. The focus on principal stresses and Mohr's Circle highlights the importance of understanding stress analysis in engineering applications.

Homework Statement


Shaft diameter: 0.2m, Torque: 150 KNm, Axial Thrust(compressive): 520KN

Trying to find the angle between maximum principal stress and shaft axis and then to draw the mohr's circle to confirm this results


Homework Equations






The Attempt at a Solution


I calcualted the:
shear stress: 95.5 *10^6
direct stress: -16.55*10^6
Principal Stresses: σ1=87.21*10^6, σ2= -103,765


Any help will appreciated.
