AI Thread Summary
To perform a Mohr's Circle analysis, it is essential to calculate the normal stresses σx, σy and the shear stress τxy. The user is unfamiliar with these concepts and seeks guidance on how to derive these values from the provided free body diagram (FBD) of a shaft made from AISI A514 steel. Understanding the relationships between these stresses is crucial for accurately constructing the Mohr's Circle diagram. Additional resources, such as a link to a detailed explanation of Mohr's Circle, are provided for further clarification. Mastering these calculations is vital for the successful completion of the project.

Homework Statement



Ive been told to have a Mohr's circle in a project that I'm doing
Ive never done anything to do with Mohr's Circle or stresses/strains before so I'm unsure what to do

Attached file shows FBD of shaft made from AISI A514 steel

Homework Equations



From reading up about mohr's circle I will be able to complete a diagram knowing σx, σy and τxy (i think!)

The Attempt at a Solution



I don't know how to go about getting σx, σy and τxy
