Solve Shear Stress Qn: Mx,My,Mz, Mc,I,J, VQ,It

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating shear stress and normal stress in a beam under various moments. The normal stress at point A is confirmed as 47.7 MPa, derived from the bending moment. However, there is confusion regarding the shear stress calculations, particularly with the value of Q, which is critical for determining shear stress. It is pointed out that the calculation of Q for a semicircle was incorrect, leading to discrepancies in the final shear stress results. The correct shear stress should be recalculated to approximately 1.06 MPa after addressing the identified errors.

Homework Equations



Mx=200Nm

My=300Nm

Mz=600Nm


Normal stress caused by bending moment at A = Mc/I = (300*0.02)/((pi*0.02^4)/4)= 47.7MPa. This answer is correct.




Shear stress by Torsional Moment=Tc/J

Polar moment of inertia J=(pi/2)*c^4

So I did (600*0.02)/((pi*0.02^4)/2)= 47.7MPa Is this correct?

&

VQ/It=1000*((4*0.02)/3*pi)*((pi*0.02^2))/(1.257*10^-7*0.04)=10.47 MPa Is this correct?

One of the stress calculations is wrong beacuse when added that should equal 48.8 MPa

So what I'm I doing wrong?

it appears you calculated Q incorrectly, ormade a math error, one or the other. The Q of a semicircle about its base is 2r^3/3

Is Q not =y bar prime * A prime = 4r/3pi * (pi*r^2)/2 ?

certainly, which simplifies to 2r^3/3. So you have made a math error...you
forgot to divide by 2 when determing area of semicircle...and some other calculation error..try again and you should get the correct shear stress as 1.06 MPa
