Choose one of the following options.
Select one or more:
Neither criterion is suitable for predicting failure by brittle fracture.
The von Mises criterion is less conservative than the Tresca criterion.
Both criteria are based on principal stress differences.
Neither criterion is suitable for predicting yield under torsional stress.
Both criteria are empirical, based on experimental observation.
The Tresca criterion is mathematically simpler than The von Mises criterion.
