Maximum Shear Stress from Von Mises Criterion Calculator

Calculate Maximum Shear Stress



Formula

The formula to calculate the Maximum Shear Stress from the Von Mises Criterion is:

\[ \tau_{\text{max}} = 0.577 \cdot \sigma_y \]

Definition

The Maximum Shear Stress is the highest shear stress that acts coplanar with the cross-section of a material, arising due to shear forces. It is calculated based on the yield strength of the material.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ \tau_{\text{max}} = 0.577 \cdot 35,000,000 \approx 20,195,000 \, \text{Pascals} \]

The Maximum Shear Stress is approximately 20,195,000 Pascals.
