where the vertical bars in the <strong>for</strong>mulas <strong>for</strong> σ S indicate absolute values of the<br />

enclosed expressions. Because σ I ≥ σ II ≥ σ III, it is clear that the largest shear<br />

stress value is<br />

It may be shown that, <strong>for</strong> distinct principal stresses, only the two solutions<br />

presented in this section satisfy Eq 3.7-8.<br />

3.8 Mohr’s Circles For Stress<br />

Consider again the state of stress at P referenced to principal axes<br />

(Figure 3.12) and let the principal stresses be ordered according to σI > σII > σIII. As be<strong>for</strong>e, we may express σN and σS on any plane at P in terms of the<br />

components of the normal ˆn to that plane by the equations<br />

which, along with the condition<br />
