Abstract
Recently, two features have been observed in the field of the unified description of inelastic material behaviour. The first approach is based on the development of a general material law describing the different inelastic properties ([1]). Another approach, which is used by Bergander ([2]) consists in a unified representation of current constitutive laws. All these considerations are characterized by a pure constitutive analysis, without any reference to the field equations.
The aim of this paper is a generalization of Bergander’s standard formulation ([2]) under the aspect of a uniform treatment of both, the field equations and the constitutive relations. Furthermore, this approach should allow us to develop a uniform numerical solution strategy consisting of finite element discretization, implicit time integration and a consistent linearization as a generalization of the well- known return-algorithm.
