| Material | G [GPa] | The maximum shear stress of
ductile materials (steels) is usually
taken 0.58 times the Ultimate Tensile Stress (τ = 0.58 UTS)
according von Mises failure criterion (distortion energy
criterion). For brittle materials the ultimate tensile
stress is taken for the maximum shear stress (τ = UTS). PROPERTIES OF SPRING MATERIALS >> (pdf file opens in new window) |
