Abstract
The theory of plasticity 1 models rate-independent material behaviour with hysteresis. Plasticity expands on the theory of elasticity by taking internal dissipation into consideration. However, internal friction is represented from a completely different viewpoint here, compared with viscoelasticity: whereas viscoelastic material behaviour is characterised by its fading memory properties, the theory of plasticity tends to express a perfect memory of a material body.
