Which theory of failure will you use for aluminium components under steady loading?
Which theory of failure will you use for aluminium components under steady loading? Correct Answer Maximum shear stress theory
Explanation:-
Maximum Shear Stress Theory ( MSST )
- According to this theory, failure occurs when maximum shear stress at any point reaches the yield strength.
- Condition for safe design:
