Plastic deformation of materials under loading along piecewise smooth trajectories with unloading areas by the elastic law (Q2831373)

Within the framework of a version of plasticity theory based on sliding, the author proposes a method for determining plastic deformation of materials with an allowance for strain anisotropy under loading along piecewise smooth trajectories with unloading areas following the elastic law. The theory is based on a material function \(\Pi\) of plasticity. For a given function \(F\) of hardening, the function \(\Pi\) is determined by a tension-compression experiment or by the alternating torsion of a thin-walled tube.
