Abstract

Two surface plasticity models have been used increasingly in recent years to model not only uniaxial, cyclic plasticity but also multiaxial and nonproportional histories. A two surface model is presented here which predicts the increased hardening due to out-of-phase cycling in a natural way. It includes a mechanism by which the bounding surface contracts when the yield surface is not in contact. This provides a mechanism that is useful for modeling cycling behavior. Predictions of the model with experiments at moderate strain are presented.
