Homework Statement
I am self-studying this note and I am stuck in the derivation of the normal shear stress. I can't see how the relations (23) and (24) come about, i.e. I don't understand
[tex]
\tau'_{xx} = \frac{\tau_{xx}+\tau_{yy}}{2}+\tau_{yx}
[/tex]
and
[tex]
\tau'_{yy} = \frac{\tau_{xx}+\tau_{yy}}{2}-\tau_{yx}
[/tex]
Can someone elaborate on the note to make it clearer? Thanks in advance.
