This is Open-Book & Open-Notes, you may discuss with a neighbor but please submit your OWN work and credit any contributions from your colleagues. I expect full honesty and responsibility.
Cast iron when tested in tension and compression has an ultimate strength of (ult)T=280MPa and (ult)C=420MPa, respectively. Also, when subjected to pure torsion it can sustain an ultimate shear stress of ult=168MPa. Plot Mohr's circles for each case and establish the failure envelope by connecting the circles.
If a part made of this material is subjected to the state of plane stress shown below, determine if it fails according to Mohr's failure criterion.
Does it fail?
