Fracture Stress in Design of Shafts Formulas

Fracture Stress is the maximum stress a material can withstand without breaking, typically calculated using the maximum shear stress and principal stress theory. And is denoted by f_s. Fracture Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Pressure. Note that the value of Fracture Stress is always negative.

FAQ

What is the Fracture Stress?

Fracture Stress is the maximum stress a material can withstand without breaking, typically calculated using the maximum shear stress and principal stress theory. Fracture Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter for Pressure. Note that the value of Fracture Stress is always negative.

Can the Fracture Stress be negative?

Yes, the Fracture Stress, measured in Pressure can be negative.

What unit is used to measure Fracture Stress?

Fracture Stress is usually measured using the Newton per Square Millimeter[N/mm²] for Pressure. Pascal[N/mm²], Kilopascal[N/mm²], Bar[N/mm²] are the few other units in which Fracture Stress can be measured.
