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:

    “Thus did he yield me in the shady night
    A wondrous and instructive light,
    Which taught me that under our feet there is,
    As o’er our heads, a place of bliss.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “If we are to take for the criterion of truth the majority of suffrages, they ought to be gotten from those philosophic and patriotic citizens who cultivate their reason.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)
