Yu Mao-Hong

Yu Mao-Hong (Chinese: 俞茂宏, b. 1934) is a Chinese engineer and a university professor. He is noted for his research on the strength criteria and yield surfaces of isotropic materials.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] His unified strength theory (UST) has found acceptance as generalized classical strength theory.^[5]^[6] It contains the following strength theories (hypotheses) and criteria as a function of the equivalent stress $\sigma _{\mathrm {eq} }=\sigma _{+}$ without any additional parameters:

the normal stress theory (the William John Macquorn Rankine hypothesis),
the Tresca yield criterion,
the Sokolovsky^[7] regular dodecagon in the π-plane as approximation of the von Mises yield criterion, and
the Schmidt-Ishlinsky^[8]^[9] yield criterion

and three one-parameter (in addition to the equivalent stress $\sigma _{\mathrm {eq} }$ ) criteria: the Mohr–Coulomb theory (Single-Shear-Theory (SST)), the Sdobyrev^[10] (Pisarenko-Lebedev)^[11]^[12] criterion, and the Twin-Shear-Theory (TST). The Unified Yield Criterion (UYC) as a part of the UST is used in the theory of plasticity (physics).
