Geiringer velocity relations

ID: geiringer-velocity-relations

For an associated flow rule in the reduced plane-strain yield coordinates, the rate-of-strain tensor has zero extension along both slip line directions. Write velocity as , with the local orthonormal axes turning through angle . Differentiating along an curve gives longitudinal extension ; along a curve it gives . Setting these extensions to zero proves the relations for the corresponding anisotropic yield surface parameterization.
