This paper develops numerical strategies which enable the constrained incremental Newton-Raphson scheme to handle the static response of structures to loading fields with completely generalized histories. This is made possible through the use of specially warped hyperelliptic constraint surfaces which control successive or clustered load steps in the vicinity of loading events with specific timing schedules. Such an approach enables improved convergence and stability characteristics. Due to the generality of the methodology, pre- and postbuckling behaviour caused by both kinematic and material nonlinearity can be handled. To demonstrate the scheme, the results of several bench-mark problems are also presented. These include situations involving nonlinear kinematics as well as highly history-dependent elastic-plastic and thermoelastic- plastic material behaviour.
