X.D.1.4 “VonMisesSR” criterion

This criterion is used to calculate Von Mises strength ratios. The relation between strength ratio, reserve factor and margin of safety is as follows:

SR = 1 RF = 1 MoS + 1.

This leads to the following expression for the strength ratio:

SR = FoSσV M σall ,

in which

σV M = (σxx - σyy )2 + (σyy - σzz )2 + (σzz - σxx )2 2 + 3σxy2 + 3σxz2 + 3σyz2.

The arguments of the criterion are given in Table X.D.7. The method returns an Array of 7 elements according to Table X.D.8:
