The present study is devoted to extending Barlat’s famous yield criteria to tension–compression asymmetry by a novel method originally introduced by Khan, which can decouple the anisotropy and tension–compression asymmetry characteristics. First, Barlat (1987) isotropic yield criterion, which leads to a good approximation of yield loci calculated by the Taylor–Bishop–Hill crystal plasticity model, is extended to include yielding asymmetry. Furthermore, the famous Barlat (1989) anisotropic yield criterion, which can well describe the plastic behavior of face-centered cubic (FCC) metals, is extended to take the different strength effects into account. The proposed anisotropic yield criterion has a simple mathematical form and has only five parameters when used in planar stress states. Compared with existing theories, the new yield criterion has much fewer parameters, which makes it very convenient for practical applications. Furthermore, all coefficients of the criterion can be determined by explicit expressions. The effectiveness and flexibility of the new yield criterion have been verified by applying to different materials. Results show that the proposed theory can describe the plastic anisotropy and yielding asymmetry of metals well and the transformation onset of the shape memory alloy, showing excellent predictive ability and flexibility.

Mechanical and thermal properties significantly affect many aspects of machining, such as chip formation, cutting forces, cutting temperatures, and surface integrity of machined products. One of the most important mechanical properties is the material flow stress, which is governed by the field variables including the strain, strain rate, and temperature. Due to the presence of high values of these variables in machining, it is important to evaluate the performance of different material models, typically developed at much lower strains, strain rates, and temperatures. The other issue is to identify the effect of the history of these variables that material microvolume experiences while moving through the shear zones and include them in the model. It is demonstrated that such material models may be suitable choices to describe the material flow in simulation of machining, which leads to an extrapolation from the mathematical form of these models. In addition, this paper discuses the importance of history dependency in flow stress and compares the performance of three commonly employed material constitutive models including the nonhistory-dependent Johnson–Cook (J–C) model, the empirical Oxley model, and the history-dependent Maekawa model. It is demonstrated that among the metals with different crystal structures, the flow stress of face-centered cubic (FCC) metals is highly affected by the strain path and is very little sensitive to temperature and strain-rate changes. In addition, the magnitudes of these effects are discussed.

The influence of plastic anisotropy on the plastic behavior of porous ductile materials is investigated by a three-dimensional finite element analysis. A unit cell of cube containing a spherical void is modeled. The Hill quadratic anisotropic yield criterion is used to describe the matrix normal anisotropy and planar isotropy. The matrix material is first assumed to be elastic perfectly plastic. Macroscopically uniform displacements are applied to the faces of the cube. The finite element computational results are compared with those based on the closed-form anisotropic Gurson yield criterion suggested in Liao et al. 1997, “Approximate Yield Criteria for Anisotropic Porous Ductile Sheet Metals,” Mech. Mater., pp. 213–226. Three fitting parameters are suggested for the closed-form yield criterion to fit the results based on the modified yield criterion to those of finite element computations. When the strain hardening of the matrix is considered, the computational results of the macroscopic stress-strain behavior are in agreement with those based on the modified anisotropic Gurson’s yield criterion under uniaxial and equal biaxial tensile loading conditions.

Anisotropy is a key feature of the plastic behavior of aluminum alloy sheets. Significant research efforts have been dedicated during the past few decades to characterize and model this behavior. Advanced anisotropic yield criteria are available today in the scientific literature. This article reviews the most important yield criteria, in historical order, with an emphasis on the models particularly adapted to aluminum alloys. Along with the mathematical description, illustrations of their performance are provided together with the parameter identification procedure and the required input data. The mechanical parameters that describe plastic anisotropy are also summarized. The relevance of the available models for practical applications is analyzed, and guidance is provided for the selection and aware use of these yield criteria in engineering.

In this article, the yielding and plastic flow of a rapid-prototyped ABS compound was investigated for various plane stress states. The experimental procedures consisted of multiaxial tests performed on an Arcan device on specimens manufactured through photopolymerization. Numerical analyses were employed in order to determine the yield points for each stress state configuration. The results were used for the calibration of the Hosford yield criterion and flow potential. Numerical analyses performed on identical specimen models and test configurations yielded results that are in accordance with the experimental data.

The effects of ausforming in an Fe30Mn10Cr10Co high-entropy alloy on the microstructure, hardness, and plastic anisotropy were investigated. The alloy showed a dual-phase microstructure consisting of face-centered cubic (FCC) austenite and hexagonal close-packed (HCP) martensite in the as-solution-treated condition, and the finish temperature for the reverse transformation was below 200 °C. Therefore, low-temperature ausforming at 200 °C was achieved, which resulted in microstructure refinement and significantly increased the hardness. Furthermore, plasticity anisotropy, a common problem in HCP structures, was suppressed by the ausforming treatment. This, in turn, reduced the scatter of the hardness.

In spite of this progress in predicting ductile failure, the development of macroscopic yield criteria for describing damage evolution in HCP (hexagonal close-packed) materials remains a challenge. HCP materials display strength differential effects (i.e., different behavior in tension versus compression) in the plastic response due to twinning. Cazacu and Stewart [1] developed an analytic yield criterion for a porous material containing randomly distributed spherical voids in an isotropic, incompressible matrix that displays tension-compression asymmetry. The matrix material was taken to obey the isotropic form of the Cazacu et al. [2] yield criterion, which captures the tension-compression asymmetry of the matrix material. In this paper, finite element calculations of a round tensile bar are conducted with the material behavior described by the Cazacu and Stewart [1] yield criterion. The goal of these calculations is to investigate the effect of the tension-compression asymmetry on the necking induced by void evolution and propagation.

Modeling the post-peak behaviour of brittle materials like concrete is still a challenge from the point of view of computational mechanics, due to the strong nonlinearities arising in the material behaviour during softening and the complexity of the yield criterion that may describe their deformation capacity in generic triaxial stress states. A numerical model for plain concrete in compression is formulated within the framework of the coupled elasto-plastic-damage theory. The aim is to simulate via the Finite Element (FE) method the stress-strain behaviour of concrete at the meso-scale, where local confinement effects generally characterize the cement paste under the action of the surrounding aggregates. The mechanical characterization of the components are accomplished through a specific experimental campaign. With the subsequent validation study, it is shown that a few calibration parameters give a good prediction of load strength and deformation capacity coming from real uniaxial compression tests.
