    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="Otto Mohr (1882) showed that the normal and shear stresses on every plane through a point, plotted against each other, fall on a single circle. Its centre is the mean normal stress, its radius the largest in-plane shear stress, and its ends on the axis are the principal stresses (~engineeringkit.structural_engineering.mohr_circle). Turning the element by \theta moves the point by 2\theta around the circle (~engineeringkit.structural_engineering.stress_transformation). The example traces the circle by rotating an element, checks that the principal stresses are the eigenvalues of the stress tensor, and finds the plane of maximum shear.">
