We introduce in this paper an optimal first-order method that allows an easy and cheap evaluation of the local Lipschitz constant of the objective's gradient. This constant must ideally be chosen at every iteration as small as possible,…

This paper is devoted to the question, whether there is an order barrier $p\leq2$ for time integration in computational elasto-plasticity. In the analysis we use an implicit Runge-Kutta (RK) method of order $p=3$ for integrating the…
