Abstract

While the behavior of material under monotonic loading is made traceable in the light of existing theory of plasticity, the cases of cyclic loading that varies irregularly are hard to describe faithfully by the same theory. To improve this situation, a method to simulate the stress-strain behavior of steel under uniaxial loading based on computer is firstly proposed. Generalization of this simulation to three dimensional case by means of yield function for mixed hardening law is proposed. A finite element analysis of a cracked plate shows validity of describing the material behavior through this approach.
