Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a stress matrix [σ] = [[4, 2], [2, 5]] and a rotation of 60 degrees, find σ_new. Verify your result by checking the traction on certain planes.

💡 Hint: Ensure to keep track of the angles in radians or degrees.

Question 2

You're provided a stress tensor value. If you rotate the coordinate system by 90 degrees, explain how the matrix representation shifts.

💡 Hint: Visualize the rotation and apply the transformation equations accordingly.
