Yield Locus

• For a biaxial plane stress condition the Von Mises yield criterion can be expressed mathematically as: (Plot of this eqn is the Yield Locus)

is the equation of an ellipse. Major axis is and Minor axis is

Yield Locus cont…

• For maximum shear stress condition – Yield locus falls inside of Von Mises Yield ellipse.

• (Uniaxial and balanced biaxial stress) predicts the same yield stress.

• For pure shear there occurs a greatest divergence

• Yield stress by Von Mises criterion 15.5% > Yield stress by maximum shear stress criterion.

• Change in property values with direction of measurement.• Properties and amount of change depends on:

Structural origin of anisotropy Intensity with which it is developed

Properties are: Yield Strength (YS)Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS)Percentage elongationReduction in areaUniform and total ductilityTrue stress at fractureNotched bar energy absorption.

Anisotropy in Yielding

• Yield stress & ultimate tensile stress (under tension) are sensitive to structural anisotropy.

• Other properties depend on fibering of particles and weak interfaces.

• The intersection of (σ2 /σ1) = 1 (load path & yield locus) has physical significance.

Imagine• A sheet is compressed through thickness

direction and yields at σy(3) . A hydrostatic tension (in all three directions) is applied to the yielding specimen.

• The magnitude of hydrostatic tension is σh = σy(3) (It does change the stress state but it will not yield).

• By adding compressive & tensile hydrostatic stresses σh = σy(3) balanced biaxial tension can be produced (responsible for yielding of sheet metal).

• Yielding on (σ2 /σ1) = 1 load path is controlled by through thickness compression yield stress.

• Yield condition is given by: σ1 =σ2 = σy(3)


05/03/2023 10

• σy(3) changes independent of σy(1,2) (yield stress in direction 1 & 2 respectively).

• Anisotropy is described by – Normal anisotropy (&) Planar anisotropy

(which is related with crystallographic textures in rolled sheets)

– The texture is symmetrical around the normal sheet.

– Anisotropy has effect on yield locus.


05/03/2023 11


05/03/2023 12

• When σy(3) > σy(1,2) yielding is postponed to above uniaxial yield level. (This is texture hardening).

• When σy(3) < σy(1,2) the result is texture softening.• Empirical equation for anisotropic yield locus:

This equation follows from Hill’s general analysis of yielding in plastically anisotropic material.


05/03/2023 13


• Yielding criteria is considered if the material is isotropic.

• Material is no longer isotropic due to appreciable plastic deformation.

• Most fabricated metal shapes have anisotropic properties, so that it is likely that the tubular specimen used for basic studies of yield criteria incorporate some degree of anisotropy.

• Von-Mises’ criterion would not be valid for highly oriented cold-rolled sheet or a fiber-reinforced composite material.

• Hill’s formulated yield criterion for anisotropic material having orthotropic symmetry.

• where F,G,…..N are constants defining degree of anisotropy.

05/03/2023 15


• For principal axes of orthotropic symmetry

• If X is yield stress in 1 direction, Y is yield stress in the 2 direction and Z is the yield stress in the 3 direction, then we can evaluate the constant as

Yield locus for textured titanium – alloy sheet (Fig 2)

ε = 0.002

05/03/2023 18


• On a plane-stress yield locus as in fig 1, anisotropic yielding results in distortion of the yield locus.

• The yield locus is highly textured titanium alloy sheet (fig 2).

• The experimentally determined curve is non-symmetric when compared with ideal isotropic curve.

05/03/2023 19


• An important aspect of yield anisotropy is texture hardening.

• Consider a highly textured sheet that is fabricated into a thin-wall pressure vessel, so that the thickness stress is negligible.

05/03/2023 20


or • We can assume that the yield stress in the

plane of the sheet are equal, i.e. X=Y.•

05/03/2023 21


• However the yield stress in the thickness direction of the sheet, Z, which is a difficult property to measure.

• This problem can be circumvented by measuring R value, (R = the ratio of the width strain to thickness strain.)

The yield locus equation is written as:

05/03/2023 22


• The yield locus can be written as

• High through thickness yield stress Z results in low-thickness strain and high value of R.

• The extent of strength is seen in fig. 1 from the texture effect for spherical vessel

• The resistance to yielding (plastic deformation) increases with increased R.

• If it is now assumed that there exists three orthogonal principal axes of anisotropy such that:

i. The direct strain increments are independent of shear stress,

ii. The shear strain increment are independent of direct stresses,

iii. The shear strain increment depend on the corresponding shear stresses only;

• Then by invoking the plastic incompressibility assumption the number of independent coefficients are reduced to 6.

• Then = =0 Hence :=(G+H):-H:-G ………(21)• The ratio is referred to as the value . (the suffix ‘x’ implying the x- direction of anisotropy)

05/03/2023 35


• It is the ratio of the width strain increment to the thickness strain increment.

• In an isotropic material it would have the value of unity.

• It is usual to refer to the integrated form of (21) so that

05/03/2023 37

Plane Stress System

• This is appropriate to sheet metal forming operation and (say) is taken as zero.

• Equation (19) and (20) still hold of course with =0 .• The form of equation (21) and (22) are unchanged.• It is customary to identify the “Rolling Direction“

“Transverse Direction” and “Through Thickness Direction” of a sheet metal of material, as the principal direction of Anisotropy.

• Consequently a Tensile test conducted on a specimen cut from the plane of the sheet.

• But in the Rolling Direction is usually designated as “R” value of .

• The suffix 0 indicates to the rolling direction.• Similarly the would be the “R” value for a tensile

specimen cut at 90° to the rolling direction.• Again, in general,

05/03/2023 39

Planar Anisotropy

• If by performing experiments on the sheet it is found that the measured R value is unchanged with orientation , the sheet is said to have Planar Anisotropy.

• (if R=1 then the sheet is of course isotropic)

05/03/2023 42

Normal Anisotropy

• Already mentioned that a constant R value, independent of rotation, implies Planar Anisotropy.

• However for R≠1 the material is still Anisotropic.• A high R value(R>1) implies that the material has

a high resistance to thinning (A high through thickness strength)

• The reverse is true for R<1.

05/03/2023 43

Normal Anisotropy

• Consequently the R value(for a sheet with planar isotropy) is regarded as a measure of the Normal Anisotropy.

• A technological measure of Normal Anisotropy is often given as

• ͞b= …………………….(27)

05/03/2023 44

Normal Anisotropy cont…

• The recognition of the role that the R value can play in certain metal forming processes has lead to an increased activity in the role of “Texture Hardening”.

• The problem lies in first identifying the role ‘R’ might play and then suitably processing the sheet to produce the desired Texture.

• For example an increased in ‘R’ value tends to increase the deep drawing capabilities of sheet.

• All evidence up to now would suggest a similar trend for Stretch Forming Operation.

Representative Stress and Representative Strain Increment

• As with the isotropic case expression for representative stress and representative strain increment can be formulated.

• Written in terms of principal components and directed in the principal axes of Anisotropy, they are:-

• We have already seen that conducting tensile test and measuring the resulting strain increments (or total strain) from the number of tensile tests.

• We can obtain a ratio of the anisotropic coefficient.

• See for example equation (21),(22) and (25).

• Similarly the coefficient are also related to the tensile stress properties for example using equation(18) or (19).

05/03/2023 59


• Hence if we know the coefficient(or their ratio) then we are a liberty to predict the yield strength in other direction if we know it in one direction.

• For example planar isotropy (with F=G) requires

• Thus knowing then is given by• …………………….(38)

05/03/2023 60


• Already mentioned that altering the coefficient s H,G and F will alter the shape of the yield locus .

• You can verify this for yourselves using equations (19) or (29), since one can establish a Geometric representation of the yield surface when plotted in principal stresses space.

05/03/2023 61


• The plot can be further simplified by considering the plane stress case (e.g. =0)

• For example using equation (29)(with =0) and setting H=0, F=G . The yield surface when plotted in is a circle.

• Putting F=G, but H>F elongates the yield surface along the axis bisecting the axis (i.e. along a 45° line) .

Verification of the and dϵ̅expression for Hill’s Model of Anisotropy cont…

• The yield surface is still symmetric about this 45° line with F=G .

• If F≠G then the surface is not symmetric about this 45° line.

• Note also the influence of F,G and H on a Plane Strain loading line.

• Consider the case of , from (20) or (31 (b)) (with=0), then is given by

• Therefore equal biaxial stresses σ in the plane of the sheet is the same as doing a compression (or tension) test (i.e.in the 3 directions).

• Hence looking at the ellipse on diagram the intersection the ellipse makes with the 45° direction (distance OC) measures the through thickness strength.

• This can be greater or less than OA or OB depending on the values of H,G and F.
