This model illustrates an orthotropic plastic calculation using the Tsai-Wu plasticity criterion on a timber surface, as presented in modern analysis software. It highlights the interaction between strain hardening and plastic behavior in orthotropic materials. The simulation provides detailed insights into the material parameters and their interactions. The linked image shows the graphical display of the model geometry with a structured mesh that visualizes the relevant load distributions.
