Summary
INTRODUCTION
Slip-line field theory is based on analysis of a deformation field that is both geometrically self-consistent and statically admissible. Slip lines are planes of maximum shear stress and are therefore oriented at 45° to the axes of principal stress. It is assumed that
the material is isotropic and homogeneous,
the material is rigid – ideally plastic (i.e., no strain hardening),
effects of temperature and strain rate are ignored,
plane-strain deformation prevails, and
the shear stresses at interfaces are constant: usually frictionless or sticking friction.
Figure 9.1 shows the very simple slip line for indentation where the thickness, t, equals the width of the indenter, b. The maximum shear stress occurs on line DEB and CEA. The material in triangles DAE and CEB is rigid. As the indenters move closer together the field must change. However, for now, we are concerned with calculating the force when the geometry is as shown. The stress ςy must be zero because there is no restraint to lateral movement. The stress ςz must be intermediate between ςx and ςy. Figure 9.2 shows the Mohr's circle for this condition. The compressive stress necessary for this indentation is ςx= − 2k. Few slip-line fields are composed of only straight lines. More complicated fields will be considered.
