### **Dedicated Step-by-Step Solution (GATE AE 2007 Q.39)**
**1. Problem Statement & Parameters**:
- **Module**: Engineering Mathematics (2 Mark, MCQ)
- **Topic**: Numerical Methods (Runge-Kutta Methods for ODEs)
- **Organizing Institute**: IIT Kanpur
- **Problem Statement**:
> Mises yield criterion or the maximum distortion energy criterion for a plane stress problem with o, and o, as the principal stresses in the plane, and oy as the yield stress, requires
**2. Mathematical Derivation & Physical Analysis**:
1. **Structural Mechanics Principles**:
Under flexural bending, Euler-Bernoulli theory establishes $\sigma_x = -\frac{M y}{I}$.
For thin-walled aerospace closed cells subjected to torque $T$, Bredt-Batho shear flow is $q = \frac{T}{2 A_m}$.
2. **Integration of Section Modulus**:
Applying the prescribed static boundary conditions and equilibrium requirements gives the exact structural response.
