The paper presents a new yield criterion for orthotropic sheet metals under plane-stress conditions. The criterion is derived from the one proposed by Barlat and Lian in 1989. Two additional coefficients have been introduced in order to allow a better representation of the plastic behavior of the orthotropic sheet metals. The predictions of the new yield criterion are compared with the experimental data for AA5XXX-H22 aluminum alloy.
