Abstract:SUMMARYA ÿnite strain plasticity formulation is proposed which meets several requirements that often appear contradictory. On a physical ground, it is based on a multiplicative split of the deformation, hyperelasticity for the reversible part of the behaviour and the maximal dissipation principle to deÿne the evolution laws. On a numerical ground, it is incrementally objective and the integration over a time increment can be expressed as a minimization problem, a proper framework to examine the questions of ex… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
