Macroscopic material failure is defined in terms of load carrying capacity or energy storage capacity, equivalently. Li [2] presents a classification of macroscopic failure criteria in four categories: Stress or strain failure; Energy type failure (S-criterion, T-criterion) Damage failure; Empirical failure
The Christensen failure criterion is a material failure theory for isotropic materials that attempts to span the range from ductile to brittle materials. [1] It has a two-property form calibrated by the uniaxial tensile and compressive strengths T ( σ T ) {\displaystyle \left(\sigma _{T}\right)} and C ( σ C ) {\displaystyle \left(\sigma _{C ...
The Tsai–Wu failure criterion is a phenomenological material failure theory which is widely used for anisotropic composite materials which have different strengths in tension and compression. [1] The Tsai-Wu criterion predicts failure when the failure index in a laminate reaches 1.
Within the branch of materials science known as material failure theory, the Goodman relation (also called a Goodman diagram, a Goodman-Haigh diagram, a Haigh diagram or a Haigh-Soderberg diagram) is an equation used to quantify the interaction of mean and alternating stresses on the fatigue life of a material. [1]
The Tsai hill criterion is interactive, i.e. the stresses in different directions are not decoupled and do affect the failure simultaneously. [2] Furthermore, it is a failure mode independent criterion, as it does not predict the way in which the material will fail, as opposed to mode-dependent criteria such as the Hashin criterion, or the Puck ...
The T-failure criterion is a set of material failure criteria that can be used to predict both brittle and ductile failure. [1] [2]These criteria were designed as a replacement for the von Mises yield criterion which predicts the unphysical result that pure hydrostatic tensile loading of metals never leads to failure.
Alternately, a formability limit diagram can be generated by mapping the shape of a failure criterion into the formability limit domain. [3] However the diagram is obtained, the resultant diagram provides a tool for the determination as to whether a given cold forming process will result in failure or not. Such information is critical in the ...
The 'bathtub curve' hazard function (blue, upper solid line) is a combination of a decreasing hazard of early failure (red dotted line) and an increasing hazard of wear-out failure (yellow dotted line), plus some constant hazard of random failure (green, lower solid line). The bathtub curve is a particular shape of a failure rate graph.
