Abstract
An explicit characterization of the quasiconvex envelope of the condensed energy in a model for finite elastoplasticity is presented, both in two and in three spatial dimensions. A variational formulation of plasticity, which is appropriate for the first time step in a time discrete formulation of the evolution problem, is used, and it is assumed that only one slip system is active. The model includes a nonlinear elastic energy, which is invariant under SO(n), and an effective plastic contribution which is quadratic in the slip parameter. The quasiconvex envelope arises via the formation of first-order laminates.
