Logan-Hosford Yield Criterion For Anisotropic Plasticity

The Logan-Hosford yield criterion for anisotropic plasticity is similar to Hill's generalized yield criterion and has the form

 F|\sigma_2-\sigma_3|^n + G|\sigma_3-\sigma_1|^n + H|\sigma_1-\sigma_2|^n = 1 \,

where F,G,H are constants, are the principal stresses, and the exponent n depends on the type of crystal (bcc, fcc, hcp, etc.) and has a value much greater than 2. Accepted values of are 6 for bcc materials and 8 for fcc materials.

Though the form is similar to Hill's generalized yield criterion, the exponent n is independent of the R-value unlike the Hill's criterion.

Famous quotes containing the words yield and/or criterion:

    You oughtn’t to yield to temptation.
    Well, somebody must, or the thing becomes absurd.
    Anthony Hope (1863–1933)

    There is only one art, whose sole criterion is the power, the authenticity, the revelatory insight, the courage and suggestiveness with which it seeks its truth.... Thus, from the standpoint of the work and its worth it is irrelevant to which political ideas the artist as a citizen claims allegiance, which ideas he would like to serve with his work or whether he holds any such ideas at all.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)
