Plasticity

Dear all,

Do you have any reference about the theory of plasticity? Especially about flow theory and von Mises yield criterion?

For example if I have an effective stress - plastic strain relationship, and I after yielding, I increase my strain again, how can I obtain the increment of the plastic strain and the stress deviator tensor?

Thanks a lot.

Best,

Ray

How to input LaTeX equations in iMechanica

Submitted by Yixiang Gan on

 

Last time, when I saw one blog of Biswajit Banerjee, I thought it would be much more convenient if we can input some equations in iMechanica for discussion. When I make discussion about mechanics with colleagues, I would like to write down some equations on the blackboard or paper. For discussion based on the web blog, LaTeX equations will be helpful. And it would be better if one can input equations directly instead of uploading one picture after another.

     A new website http://www.failurecriteria.com has been initiated which surveys mechanics type failure criteria for homogeneous materials.  Although later additions will be concerned with anisotropic materials, the first topic of attention is that of yield and failure criteria for isotropic materials.  A brief review of  the Mises, Tresca, and Coulomb-Mohr criteria is given, along with the need for a more general form which spans the various  materials classes including metals, polymers and ceramics
