Abstract: In the context of infinitesimal strain plasticity with hardening, we derive a stochastic homogenization result. We assume that the coefficients of the equation are random functions: elasticity tensor, hardening parameter and flow-rule function are given through a dynamical system on a probability space. A parameter eps>0 denotes the typical length scale of oscillations. We derive effective equations that describe the behavior of solutions in the limit epso0. The homogenization limit is based on the needle-problem approach: We verify that the stochastic coefficients "allow averaging": In average, a strain evolution [0,T]itmapstoxi(t)insymM induces a stress evolution [0,T]itmapstoSigma(xi)(t)insymM. With the abstract result of [9] we obtain the stochastic homogenization limit.
