In this paper we present a new general framework for anisotropic elastoplasticity at large strains. The new framework presents the following characteristics: (1) It is valid for non-moderate large strains, (2) it is valid for both elastic…
We obtain an exact strain consistency equation for full, elastic, and plastic strain characteristics that have a clear physical meaning and are naturally related to stresses. The dynamic equations are represented in a form that does not use…
This article considers a model problem of elastoplasticity with linearly kinematic hardening and presents hp-finite element discretizations of two equivalent weak formulations each having their respective advantages. A mixed variational…
We consider two most studied standard models in the theory of elasto-plasticity with hardening in arbitrary dimension $d\ge 2$, namely, the kinematic hardening and the isotropic hardening problem. While the existence and uniqueness of the…
Fatigue simulation requires accurate modeling of unloading and reloading. However, classical ductile damage models treat deformations after complete failure as irrecoverable -- which leads to unphysical behavior during unloading. This…
An elasto-plasticity model with coupled hardening variables of strain type is presented. In the theoretical framework of generalized associativity, the formulation of this model is based on the introduction of two hardening variables with a…
A unified classification framework for models of extended plasticity is presented. The models include well known micromorphic and strain gradient plasticity formulations. A unified treatment is possible due to the representation of strain…
The two key phenomena occurring in the process of ceramic powder compaction are the progressive gain in cohesion and the increase of elastic stiffness, both related to the development of plastic deformation. The latter effect is an example…
Computational formulations for large strain, polyconvex, nearly incompressible elasticity have been extensively studied, but research on enhancing solution schemes that offer better tradeoffs between accuracy, robustness, and computational…
This paper addresses the well posedness of a dynamical model of perfect plasticity with mixed boundary conditions for general closed and convex elasticity sets. The proof relies on an asymptotic analysis of the solution of a perfect…
In this paper a higher-order mixed finite element method for elastoplasticity with linear kinematic hardening is analyzed. Thereby, the non-differentiability of the involved plasticity functional is resolved by a Lagrange multiplier leading…
The gradient crystal plasticity framework of Wulfinghoff et al. [53] incorporating an equivalent plastic strain and grain boundary yielding, is extended with additional grain boundary hardening. By comparison to averaged results from many…
A theoretical and computational investigation is carried out of a dissipative model of rate-independent strain-gradient plasticity and its regularization. It is shown that the flow relation, when expressed in terms of the Cauchy stress, is…
Strain gradient elasticity and nonlocal elasticity are two enhanced elastic theories intensively used over the last fifty years to explain static and dynamic phenomena that classical elasticity fails to do. The nonlocal elastic theory has a…
The modeling of the elastic properties of disordered or nanoscale solids requires the foundations of the theory of elasticity to be revisited, as one explores scales at which this theory may no longer hold. The only cases for which…
A new mathematical formulation for the constitutive laws governing elastic perfectly plastic materials is proposed here. In particular, it is shown that the elastic strain rate and the plastic strain rate form an orthogonal decomposition…
Analytical method for the second-order homogenization of two-phase composites within Mindlin-Toupin strain gradient elasticity theory is proposed. Direct approach and self-consistent approximation are used to reduce the homogenization…
Mechanical densification of granular bodies is a process in which a loose material becomes increasingly cohesive as the applied pressure increases. A constitutive description of this process faces the formidable problem that granular and…
We prove existence and uniqueness for solutions to equilibrium problems for free-standing, traction-free, non homogeneous crystals in the presence of plastic slips. Moreover we prove that this class of problems is closed under G-convergence…
This work is concerned with the purely dissipative version of a well-established model of rate-independent strain-gradient plasticity. In the conventional theory of plasticity the approach to determining plastic flow is local, and based on…
