    Von Mises /Maximum distortion theorem?

    Hi, Thank you for all your input on this. I would like to make a few things more clear. When I refer to "a rectangular section of the wall", I am indeed thinking of a hypothetical arc length by axial length. I believe the von misses equivalent stress is limited by poissons ratio (in that...

    Von Mises /Maximum distortion theorem?

    Hi, Equivalent stress = (0.5^0.5))*((s1-s2)^2 +(s2-s3)^2 +(s3-s1)^2)^0.5 I am using the above formula to add principle stresses. CASE 1 If I have a very long tube and want to find the stress in the wall. I get hoop stress = 100 MPa. (Neglect radial stresses). Therefore if my material yield...
