The second part of the chapter is devoted to a similar analysis of the transformation of the components of strain. © 2002 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

For the illustrated example, the state of stress is defined by σ x , σ y , τ xy and σ z = τ zx = τ zy = 0. • State of plane stress occurs in a thin plate subjected to forces acting in the midplane of the plate. • State of plane stress also occurs on the free surface of a
