Maximum Strain Failure Criterion
The material limits for the Maximum Strain failure criterion are as follows:
Tensile Ultimate Stress
Compressive Ultimate Stress
Shear Ultimate Stress
When you select Maximum Strain as the failure criterion in the Material Definition dialog box, you must specify the values of each of these material limits.
For information about the maximum strain failure criterion, see Jones, Robert M., Mechanics of Composite Materials. Washington, D.C: Taylor and Francis Book Company, 1975.
