The theory is easy to use in an analytical setting but is notwell.
It has been stated earlier that the failure of most ductile materials is most accurately governed by the distortion energy criterion which states that, at failure. Stress theory and maximum shear stress theory are the most commonly used theories of failure. Strength theories the majority of material strength data is based on uniaxial tensile test results. According to the distortion energy theory, the yield strength in shear is less than the yield strength in tension.

When there is also energy of distortion or shear to be stored, as in the. The maximum distortion energy failure theory assumes failure by yielding in a more complicated loading situation to occur when the distortion energy in the material reaches the same value as in a tension test at yield.
Thus we shall use a failure criterion that includes interaction among all the stress or strain components, the failure criterion used here for orthotropic materials is one that is analogous to the distortion energy theory for isotropic materials.
