OCTAHEDRAL SHEARING STRESS THEORY                       According to this theory, the critical quantity is the shearing stress on the octahedral plane. The plane which is equally inclined to all the three principle axes is called the octahedral plane. τ oct = (1/3) [(σ 1 – σ 2 ) 2 + (σ 2 – σ 3 ) 2 + (σ 3 – σ 1 ) 2 ] 1/2                                                                                        where, τ oct = octahedral shearing stress...
