STRESS Transformation Calculator (Plane Stress)    
by: Dominic J. Dal Bello © 2001-2009
Input Stresses, Angle
Output Stresses, Angles

   Stress state:   sx , sytxy 

   Angle of Rotation:         q      

   Transformed:     sx' , sy'txy ;   In-Plane Principal:  sI at qI , sII at qII ;

   Max. In-Plane Shear:  +|tmax| on qs1 , –|tmax| on qs2 , save ;

   Max. Out-of-Plane Shear:  tmax ;   von Mises stress:  so

INPUT

1. Enter the original STRESSES on the element:
     
sx =    sy =    txy =  

2. Enter the counterclockwise (positive) rotation of the element:
     
       q (degrees) = °   (leave as zero if only calculating max. values)

3. 

OUTPUT

Stresses in rotated system (rotated q from original axis):

   sx' =    sy' =    tx'y' =

Note: The angles listed below correspond to vectors (rotated q from the x-axis) that are normal to the faces on which the stresses act. Angles in degrees.

Principal Stresses
    
 Max. Principal Stress:  sI  at  qI  = °
      Min. Principal Stress:   sII =  at  qII = °

Maximum In-Plane Shear Stress
     Max. (Pos.) Shear Stress:   t =  on  qs,1 = °
     Max. (Neg.) Shear Stress:      t =  on  qs,2 = ° 

      Normal Stress on both faces:   save=

Magnitude of Max. Out-of-Plane Shear Stress    tmax =  
von Mises Stress:   so =
