FAILURE
Yield Criteria for Ductile Materials Under Plane Stress
Fracture Criteria for Brittle Materials Under Plane Stress

OBJECTIVES
To discuss the FOUR THEORIES that are
often used in engineering practice to
predict the failure of a material
subjected to a multiaxial state of stress.
DUCTILE
MATERIALS

DUCTILE MATERIALS:
MAXIMUM-SHEAR-STRESS THEORY
The most common type of yielding
of a ductile material such as steel is
caused by slipping, which occurs
along the contact planes of
randomly ordered crystals that
make up the material.
The edges of the planes of slipping
as they appear on the surface of the
strip are referred to as Lders
lines. These lines clearly indicate
the slip planes in the strip, which
occur at approximately 45 with
the axis of the strip.
DUCTILE MATERIALS:
MAXIMUM-SHEAR-STRESS THEORY
The slipping that occurs is
caused by shear stress.
To illustrate:

Henri Tresca proposed the maximum-shear-stress theory
or Tresca yield criterion using the idea that ductile
materials fail in shear.
It requires that

Using the equations stated earlier, the limits for the
maximum-shear-stress theory are:

DUCTILE MATERIALS:
MAXIMUM-DISTORTION-ENERGY THEORY
This is based on the concept of strain-energy density (The
energy per unit volume).
An external loading will deform a material, causing it to
store energy internally throughout its volume.

DUCTILE MATERIALS:
MAXIMUM-DISTORTION-ENERGY THEORY
Experimental evidence has shown that materials do not
yield when subjected to a uniform stress, avg.
Therefore, M. Huber proposed MDET
This was also redefined independently by R. von Mises and
H. Hencky.

Tension Test: Fracture occurs when normal
stresses reaches ultimate stress,
Torsion Test:
Brittle Fracture
occurs due to the
maximum tensile
stress since the
plane of fracture
for an element is at
45 to the shear
direction.

BRITTLE MATERIALS:
MAXIMUM-NORMAL-STRESS THEORY
A brittle material will fail when the maximum
principal stress 1 reaches the ultimate normal stress
when subjected to simple tension test. - W. Rankine

to plane stress, we require that

BRITTLE MATERIALS:

Experimentally, it has been found to be in close
agreement with the behavior of brittle materials that
have stressstrain diagrams that are similar in both
tension and compression.
