If an object has a maximum allowable stress and a known width and thickness, how can the critical location of failing be found in the object?
To determine the critical location of failure in an object with a known maximum allowable stress, width, and thickness, two primary methods are recommended. The first method involves testing the object to destruction and inspecting the failed specimen for failure points. The second method suggests seeking assistance by posting detailed questions on Physics Forums, including any preliminary attempts at solving the problem.
