Description
Elastic‑visco‑plastic constitutive law for solid elements at variable temperature
The model
This law is used for a mechanical analysis of elastic‑visco‑plastic isotropic solids undergoing large strains.
Strain‑rate effects and isotropic hardening are included.
The temperature dependence of the material parameters is taken into account.

Stresses
Number of stresses
= 6 for 3-D state
= 4 for the other cases.
Meaning
The stresses are the components of CAUCHY stress tensor in global (X,Y,Z) coordinates.
For the 3-D state:
| SIG(1) | $\sigma_{xx}$ |
| SIG(2) | $\sigma_{yy}$ |
| SIG(3) | $\sigma_{zz}$ |
| SIG(4) | $\sigma_{xy}$ |
| SIG(5) | $\sigma_{xz}$ |
| SIG(6) | $\sigma_{yz}$ |
For the other cases:
| SIG(1) | $\sigma_{xx}$ |
| SIG(2) | $\sigma_{yy}$ |
| SIG(3) | $\sigma_{xy}$ |
| SIG(4) | $\sigma_{zz}$ |
State variables
Number of state variables
=3
List of state variables
| Q(1) | = element thickness (t) in plane stress state |
| = 1 in plane strain state | |
| = circumferential strain rate ($\dot{\varepsilon}_{\theta}$) in axisymmetric state | |
| = 0 in 3-D state | |
| = element thickness (t) in generalized plane state | |
| Q(2) | current yield limit in tension; its initial value is $K_o\exp(-b_K T)$ where $T$ is the absolute temperature in $K$ |
| Q(3) | equivalent inelastic strain ($\bar{\varepsilon}^p$) |
