Modified Forms of The Willam-Warnke Yield Criterion

An alternative form of the Willam-Warnke yield criterion in Haigh-Westergaard coordinates is the Ulm-Coussy-Bazant form:

 f(\xi, \rho, \theta) = 0 \, \quad \text{or} \quad f := \rho + \bar{\lambda}(\theta)~\left(\xi - \bar{B}\right) = 0

where

 \bar{\lambda} := \sqrt{\tfrac{2}{3}}~\cfrac{u(\theta)+v(\theta)}{w(\theta)} ~;~~ \bar{B} := \tfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}~\left

and

 \begin{align} r_t := & \cfrac{\sqrt{3}~(\sigma_b-\sigma_t)}{2\sigma_b-\sigma_t} \\ r_c := & \cfrac{\sqrt{3}~\sigma_c~(\sigma_b-\sigma_t)}{(\sigma_c+\sigma_t)\sigma_b-\sigma_c\sigma_t} \end{align}

The quantities are interpreted as friction coefficients. For the yield surface to be convex, the Willam-Warnke yield criterion requires that and .

Famous quotes containing the words modified, forms, yield and/or criterion:

    Poetry presents indivisible wholes of human consciousness, modified and ordered by the stringent requirements of form. Prose, aiming at a definite and concrete goal, generally suppresses everything inessential to its purpose; poetry, existing only to exhibit itself as an aesthetic object, aims only at completeness and perfection of form.
    Richard Harter Fogle, U.S. critic, educator. The Imagery of Keats and Shelley, ch. 1, University of North Carolina Press (1949)

    The strongest and most effective [force] in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of ... power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination.
    Maurice Godelier (b. 1934)

    Never yield to that temptation, which, to most young men, is very strong, of exposing other people’s weaknesses and infirmities, for the sake either of diverting the company, or of showing your own superiority. You may get the laugh on your side by it for the present; but you will make enemies by it for ever; and even those who laugh with you then, will, upon reflection, fear, and consequently hate you.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    ... the condition of women affords, in all countries, the best criterion by which to judge the character of men.
    Frances Wright (1795–1852)
