Numerical treatment of elastoplastic problems by the p-version of the finite element method

From MaRDI portal





The authors present an FEM algorithm with p-extension elements, in order to solve nonlinear elastoplastic problems. Large and incompressible plastic deformations being assumed, a lagrangian formulation of the FEM is implemented. The computations are performed in an unrotated frame, the radial return mapping algorithm is used, respectively kinematic and isotropic hardening rules are adopted. They apply a p-extension of the finite elements in the analysis of large deformations and elastoplastic behaviour of materials, via the truncated space and the product space method. Finally, one shows several numerical examples, concerning the uniaxial compression of a axisymmetrical cylinder.
