Direct Stress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Direct Stress = Axial Thrust/Cross sectional area
σ = P_axial/A_cs
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Direct Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - The Direct Stress is defined as axial thrust acting per unit area.
Axial Thrust - (Measured in Newton) - The Axial Thrust is the resultant force of all the axial forces (F) acting on the object or material.
Cross sectional area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Cross sectional area is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three-dimensional shape is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Axial Thrust: 2.332 Newton --> 2.332 Newton No Conversion Required
Cross sectional area: 1333.4 Square Millimeter --> 0.0013334 Square Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

σ = P_axial/A_cs --> 2.332/0.0013334

Evaluating ... ...

σ = 1748.91255437228

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1748.91255437228 Pascal --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1748.91255437228 ≈ 1748.913 Pascal <-- Direct Stress

Stress due to Impact Loading

Go Stress due to Loading = Load*(1+sqrt(1+(2*Cross sectional area*Bending Stress*Height at which load falls)/(Load*Length of Weld)))/Cross sectional area

Brinell Hardness Number

Go Brinell Hardness Number = Load/((0.5*pi*Diameter of Ball Indentor)*(Diameter of Ball Indentor-(Diameter of Ball Indentor^2-Diameter of Indentation^2)^0.5))

Thermal Stress in Tapered Bar

Go Thermal Stress = (4*Load*Length of Weld)/(pi*Diameter of Bigger End*Diameter of Smaller End*Bending Stress)

Beam Shear Stress

Go Shearing Stress = (Total Shear Force*First Moment of Area)/(Moment of Inertia*Thickness of Material)

Shearing Stress

Go Shearing Stress = (Shearing Force*First Moment of Area)/(Moment of Inertia*Thickness of Material)

Shear Stress in Double Parallel Fillet Weld

Go Shearing Stress = Load on Double Parallel Fillet Weld/(0.707*Length of Weld*Leg of Weld)

Thermal Stress

Go Thermal Stress = Coefficient of Thermal Expansion*Bending Stress*Change in Temperature

Bending Stress

Go Bending Stress = Bending Moment*Distance from Neutral Axis/Moment of Inertia

Torsional Shear Stress

Go Shearing Stress = (Torque*Radius of Shaft)/Polar Moment of Inertia

Shear Stress of Circular Beam

Go Stress on Body = (4*Shearing Force)/(3*Cross sectional area)
