Multilinear1D

Uniaxial Multilinear Material Using J2 Plasticity

Syntax

material MultilinearMises1D (1) (2) (3) ((4) (5)...)
# (1) int, unique material tag
# (2) double, elastic modulus
# (3) double, density
# (4) double, plastic strain of control point
# (5) double, stress of control point

Remarks

  1. No kinematic hardening is defined in this model.

  2. The stress will be constant after the last point defined. This means the yield surface does not change its size after the last point. So the stiffness will be singular. This may cause instability issues in analysis.

  3. The first plastic strain must be zero.
