Chaboche elasto-visco-plastic constitutive model with thermal and cyclic effects for solid elements at constant or variable temperatures with damage computation.
The model is highly adjustable and can be used for very simple laws (elastic, bilinear plasticity) as well as for more complex behaviors (visco-plasticity, isotropic hardening, kinematic hardening, cyclic hardening, …)
