  2. von Mises yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Mises_yield_criterion

    In continuum mechanics, the maximum distortion energy criterion (also von Mises yield criterion [1]) states that yielding of a ductile material begins when the second invariant of deviatoric stress reaches a critical value. [2] It is a part of plasticity theory that mostly applies to ductile materials, such as some metals.

  3. Activation strain model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activation_strain_model

    The activation strain model was originally proposed and has been extensively developed by Bickelhaupt and coworkers. [4] This model breaks the potential energy curve as a function of reaction coordinate, ζ, of a reaction into 2 components as shown in equation 1: the energy due to straining the original reactant molecules (∆E strain) and the energy due to interaction between reactant ...

  4. Material failure theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_failure_theory

    Maximum distortion energy theory (von Mises yield criterion) also referred to as octahedral shear stress theory. [4] – This theory proposes that the total strain energy can be separated into two components: the volumetric (hydrostatic) strain energy and the shape (distortion or shear) strain energy. It is proposed that yield occurs when the ...

  5. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_materials

    Maximum strain energy theory postulates that failure will occur when the strain energy per unit volume due to the applied stresses in a part equals the strain energy per unit volume at the yield point in uniaxial testing. Maximum distortion energy theory, also known as maximum distortion energy theory of failure or von Mises–Hencky theory ...

  6. Richard von Mises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_von_Mises

    He developed the distortion energy theory of stress, an important factor in material strength calculations. His ideas were not universally well received, although Alexander Ostrowski had said of him: "Only with the appointment of Richard von Mises to the University of Berlin did the first serious German school of applied mathematics with a ...

  7. Strain energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_energy

    In a molecule, strain energy is released when the constituent atoms are allowed to rearrange themselves in a chemical reaction. [1] The external work done on an elastic member in causing it to distort from its unstressed state is transformed into strain energy which is a form of potential energy.

  8. Jahn–Teller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jahn–Teller_effect

    The Jahn–Teller effect (JT effect or JTE) is an important mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in molecular and solid-state systems which has far-reaching consequences in different fields, and is responsible for a variety of phenomena in spectroscopy, stereochemistry, crystal chemistry, molecular and solid-state physics, and materials science.

  9. Peierls transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peierls_transition

    These rings demonstrate a persistent current, and the Peierls distortion can be modified by modulating the magnetic flux through the loop. [7] Density functional theory has been used to calculate the bond length alterations predicted in increasingly long chains of organic oligomers. The selection of which hybrid functional to use is paramount ...
