Is it possible to obtain the hydrostatic stress [Sigma1+Sigma2+Sigma3)/3]
from ANSYS Workbench for calculating the limiting plastic strain per
ASME VIII Div 2, Section 5.3.3 Equation 5.6
 
Think you refer to the volumetric stress. Look at HPRES. Or you can caculate it in APDL or workbench (user defined results, from princ. stress as (S1+S2*S3)*1/3).
 
Insert User defined result=>use your expression in the expression field
