Question

. Describe Mohr's modified shear stress theory for brittle materials.​

Answer 1

⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ $\huge{\tt{\red{❥}\green{A}\purple{N}\pink{S}\blue{W}\orange{E}\red{R}}}$Mohr's theory is often used in predicting the failure of brittle materials, and is applied to cases of 2D stress. Mohr's theory suggests that failure occurs when Mohr's Circle at a point in the body exceeds the envelope created by the two Mohr's circles for uniaxial tensile strength and uniaxial compression strength.
