Theory

See more details on the formulation in the parent page.

Hardening Function

The cohesion develops linearly with the accumulated plastic strain,

$$c=c_0+H\bar{\varepsilon_p},$$

in which $c_0$ is the initial cohesion (similar to the initial yield stress), $H$ is the hardening modulus, and $\bar{\varepsilon_p}$ is the accumulated plastic strain.

More

If one sets $\eta_y=\eta_f=0$, the model effectively becomes the von Mises model with the associative plasticity. In a uniaxial loading case, the yield function is then

$$F(\sigma,c)=\sigma-\sqrt{3}\xi{}c.$$

This leads to a yield stress $\sigma_y=\sqrt{3}\xi{}c_0$. The plastic hardening modulus is $3\xi^2H$. In terms of total strain and stress, the hardening ratio is $3\xi^2H/(E+3\xi^2H)$.

For the following model, one can compute the hardening ratio to be

$$\dfrac{3\xi^2H}{E+3\xi^2H}=0.06204607451.$$

One can validate this value by plotting the response.
