Mean stress correction for shear loads

If mean shear correction is specified, then the mean stress correction for quadrant II (compressive mean stress quadrant for the tension plot) takes the same form as quadrant I (tensile mean stress quadrant for the tension plot) of the mean stress correction plot. This is because in shear loading there is no concept of tension or compression. The corresponding values in the Solution parameter data set are Torsion/1 Segment and Torsion/2 Segments.

These three options correspond to the options Goodman, three segments, and four segments for normal loads. The following plots show the details and the similarity to the mean stress correction for normal loads.
