Abstract
A triaxial-stress experiment was developed for the determination of the intersections of the initial and subsequent yield surfaces with a hydrostatic stress-principal stress plane. Results of an experiment on Nittany No. 2 brass of the soft grade were reported. Information so obtained makes it possible for one to see the yield condition in the sense of a three-dimensional surface rather than a two-dimensional curve as observed in conventional biaxial-stress tests.
