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:

    “Time is here and you’ll go his way.
    Your lung is waiting in the death market.
    Your face beside me will grow indifferent.
    Darling, you will yield up your belly and be
    cored like an apple.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “I divide all literary works into two categories: Those I like and those I don’t like. No other criterion exists for me.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
