Principle of normality

The Principle of normality in solid mechanics states that if a normal to the yield locus is constructed at the point of yielding, the strains that result from yielding are in the same ratio as the stress components of the normal.[1][2]

This article is about the principle in solid mechanics. For the prisoner rehabilitation concept practiced in Norway, see normality principle.
