Statistical aspects of the identification of material parameters for elasto-plastic models (Q5946995): Difference between revisions

The presented method to identify material parameters for inelastic deformation laws is based on the numerical analysis of inhomogeneous stress and strain fields obtained from experiments. Tensile and bending tests were carried out to obtain elastic and hardening parameters. The deformation law for small elasto-plastic strains is presented as a system of nonlinear differential and algebraic equations (DAE) consisting of stress-strain relation, evolution equations for internal variables, and yield condition. Different rules for the evolution equations of isotropic, kinematic and distorsional hardening are proposed. The DAE are discretized using an implicit Euler method, and the resulting system of nonlinear algebraic equations is solved using Newton method.
