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)

    “We find the most terrible form of atheism, not in the militant and passionate struggle against the idea of God himself, but in the practical atheism of everyday living, in indifference and torpor. We often encounter these forms of atheism among those who are formally Christians.”
    —Nicolai A. Berdyaev (1874–1948)

    “The important question is not, what will yield to man a few scattered pleasures, but what will render his life happy on the whole amount.”
    —Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    “Faith in reason as a prime motor is no longer the criterion of the sound mind, any more than faith in the Bible is the criterion of righteous intention.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
