IONI = £ = OP • e = (a 1 , a 2 , a 3 ><br />

and ON is therefore determined by<br />

ON = (1, 1, 1) lj/3<br />

The component NP is given by<br />

NP = OP - ON = ((*]_, o 2 , a 3 ) - (1, 1, 1) 3^/3 = (s 1 , 3 2 , s 3 )<br />

and the length <strong>of</strong> NP is<br />

INPI = p = (sj 5 + s 2 + s 3 ) 1/2 = /2X<br />

To obtain an interpretation <strong>of</strong> J, consider the deviatoric plane,<br />

fig. 1 b). The unit vector i, located along the projection <strong>of</strong> the<br />

a.-axis on the deviatoric plane is easily shown to be determined<br />

by i = (2, -1, -D/V6. The angle 8 is measured from the unit<br />

vector i and we have<br />

p cosB = NP • i<br />

Using s, + s. + s<br />

J in eq. (2) is after some algebra found to be given by<br />

J = cos38 (2.1-3)<br />

The failure criterion eq. (1) can therefore be stated more conveniently<br />

using only invariants as
