    Thank you steris. I agree that with ANSYS you can report both stress intensities (Tresca) or Equivalent stress (Von Mises). But in a non-linear analysis, elasto-plastic type, the method of failure used is the Von Mises one. In other words yielding occur when elemental mean stress, calculated as...
