Bigoni–Piccolroaz Yield Criterion
The Bigoni–Piccolroaz yield criterion is a Yield (engineering), yielding model, based on a phenomenological approach, capable of describing the mechanical behavior of a broad class of pressure-sensitive granular materials such as soil, concrete, porous metals and ceramics. General concepts The idea behind the Bigoni-Piccolroaz criterion is that of deriving a function capable of transitioning between the yield surfaces typical of different classes of materials only by changing the function parameters. The reason for this kind of implementation lies in the fact that the materials towards which the model is targeted undergo consistent changes during manufacturing and working conditions. The typical example is that of the hardening of a power specimen by Compaction of ceramic powders, compaction and sintering during which the material changes from granular to dense. The Bigoni-Piccolroaz yielding criterion can be represented in the stress space, Haigh–Westergaard stress space a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Yield (engineering)
In materials science and engineering, the yield point is the point on a stress–strain curve that indicates the limit of elastic behavior and the beginning of plastic behavior. Below the yield point, a material will deform elastically and will return to its original shape when the applied stress is removed. Once the yield point is passed, some fraction of the deformation will be permanent and non-reversible and is known as plastic deformation. The yield strength or yield stress is a material property and is the stress corresponding to the yield point at which the material begins to deform plastically. The yield strength is often used to determine the maximum allowable load in a mechanical component, since it represents the upper limit to forces that can be applied without producing permanent deformation. For most metals, such as aluminium and cold-worked steel, there is a gradual onset of non-linear behavior, and no precise yield point. In such a case, the offset yield p ...
