Question

Modified Tsai-Hill theory

• A. distinguishes between tensile and compressive strength
• B. gives the mode of failure
• C. does not relate the different strength parameters
• D. relates only tensile and shear strength

Hint:

Understanding failure theories like Tsai-Hill helps in designing safer and more efficient composite structures by predicting failure before it occurs.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The Modified Tsai-Hill theory is specifically utilized in the study of composite materials to predict failure under combined stress states, offering predictions on the mode of failure by using a failure criterion adapted to the material's specific strength properties.
