2.6 Hardening
As already discussed most materials exhibit some degree of hardening as an
accompaniment
to plastic straining. In general this means that the shape and size of the
yield surface
changes during plastic loading. This change may be rather arbitrary and
extremely difficult
to describe accurately. Therefore, hardening is often described by a
combination of
two specific types of hardening, namely isotropic hardening and kinematic
hardening, see
Figures 14 (a)-(b). In
Ku = f
BT d (82)
This must be balanced by the total applied load, i.e. the residual
r= q f
Explicit integration
The equation (48) gives the relation between infinitesimal stress and
strain increments as
d = Dep()d (84)
Considering finite increments and we wish to integrate (84) such
that the stress
increment is found as _
j+
j
d = =
_
j+
j
Depd (85)
where index j refers to the initial state. The problem with this
integration is that Dep
depends on the current stress. Therefore, an approximate solution procedure
has to be
employed. The simplest possible approximation to (85) is
= Dep(j)
