The phrase "a stress criterion" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to engineering, materials science, or psychology, where specific criteria are established to evaluate stress levels or responses.
Example: "In our analysis, we established a stress criterion to determine the maximum load the material can withstand before failure."
Alternatives: "a stress standard" or "a stress benchmark".
A stress criterion has then been studied.
The failure could be initiated if two criteria are fulfilled: (i) an energy criterion and (ii) a stress criterion.
This analysis allows a quantitative comparison between the experimental data and the prediction of a stress criterion for cavity nucleation based on the model developed by Brown and Stobbs.
It is shown, inter alia, that the maximum extension in the medium is not systematically observed at the location of an interface and that, as expected, low speeds and interlayer slip are more damaging to the structure when either a strain or a stress criterion is considered.
A stress criterion for the onset of the transformation to Si-II was also proposed [13, 14].
Herein, to predict the failure initiation at the notch tip, we extend the finite fracture mechanics (FFM) coupled criterion, which requires a simultaneously fulfillment of an energy and a stress criteria.
This criterion yields very accurate predictions and its analytical expression validates from an energy point of view a maximum stress criterion proposed in an earlier paper.
To evaluate the reference stresses of each contact node in a finite element framework, an extreme stress criterion (the worst case design) and a weighted average criterion (Pareto design) are presented.
The numerical predictions compare well with the tests results, and they help identify the applicability range of the simpler point loading case as well as a fracture analysis that is based on a critical stress criterion in terms of the system parameters.
The failure is predicted using either a maximal stress criterion or the quadratic Tsai Wu criterion.
A maximal stress criterion is used to detect the failure on the ply.
