Information about EVP-NH:
For the 1D case, we have:
$\bar{\sigma}= A. K_0. \bar{\varepsilon}^{P_4}. exp(-P_1.\bar{\varepsilon}). P_2. \sqrt{3}. (\sqrt{3}. \bar{\dot{\varepsilon}})^{P_3}$ with $P_1 \geq 0$
The parameters $K_0, P_1, P_2, P_3, P_4$ can be given at several temperatures (ICHP2 = 2)
Otherwise, if ICHP2 ≠ 2: (see the law in section: “integer parameters”)
$P_1= (\frac{T}{C_1})^{C_2} + C_3$
$P_2= f(C_4, C_5, C_6, T)$
$P_3, P_4, K_0= constants$
Stresses
