Yield Stress Criterion - 04/22/14 11:39 PM

Yield Stress Criterion help file indicates that "If the Von Mises Theory is used, CAESAR II computes the octahedral shear stress, which differs from the Von Mises stress by a constant factor".

Can anyone please help clarifying the value of this constant factor?

Apology, if the same had been asked in this forum previously.

Thanks.
