When viewed down the <math>\sigma_1=\sigma_2=\sigma_3</math> diagonal, the 3D surface is a hexagonal rod with point-to-point diagonal equal to <math>\tau_t</math> and apex at <math>\sigma_1=\sigma_2=\sigma_3=\sigma_n</math>. For tensile failure, the crack normal is along the maximum principal stress direction; for shear failure, it is rotated 45 degrees from the principal stress directions.
These initiation calculations all the properties, in general, to depend on external parameters such as pressure, strain rate, or more. The only external dependence current modeled is to shear strength to depend on pressure.
 
Note this failure criterion never fails under hydrostatic compression. Compression failure only occurs if the principal stress point moves far enough from the diagonal to reach the shear failure surface. The failure process is then by shear.

Introduction

This damage initiation law predicts that failure initiates when maximum principal stress exceeds tensile strength of the material or when maximum shear stress exceeds shear strength of the material. It can also model pressure-dependent initiation stresses. Because it deals with principal stresses and tensile failure is the same regardless of direction, this law is only appropriate for isotropic materials such as an IsoSoftening material.

Failure Surface

FailureSurfacePlots.png

Three possible failure stress failure surfaces are shown in the figure. Which surface to use for initiation is determined by the tractionFailureSurface property of the parent isotropic softening material. The calculations for initiation transpose these surface to principle stress space and find critical stress by Mohr's circle calculations. The details are given in Ref. [1].

These initiation calculations all the properties, in general, to depend on external parameters such as pressure, strain rate, or more. The only external dependence current modeled is to shear strength to depend on pressure.

Damage Law Properties

The following table lists the input properties for maximum principal stress failure surface:

Property Description Units Default
sigmac Critical tensile stress for failure pressure units infinite
tauc Critical shear stress for failure pressure units infinite
