2 Tresca Criterion
Introduction
Fracture vs yield
Fracture Driven by normal stresses, acting to separate one atomic plane from another Broken atomic bonds are not allowed to reform in new positions Yield Driven by shear stresses, sliding one plane along another Broken atomic bonds are allowed to reform in new positions
Yield criteria
For material stretched uniaxially along e1 direction, yield occurs when : 11 y with y is the yield stress When does yield occurs in multiaxial stress states...??
Tresca Criterion
max and min are the maximum and minimum principal stresses respectively
1 2 = 1 y y
When 1 and 2 carry the same sign : if if |1 | > |2 | , |1 | < |2 | , max = max = | 1 3 | |1 | = 2 2 | 2 3 | |2 | = 2 2 and and | 1 | = y | 2 | = y
= y
= y
