Abstract
The dynamic behavior of an elastic-perfectly plastic continuum is presented, with particular attention given to unloading wave phenomena. The normal velocity of an elastic unloading wave propagating into a plastically deformed region is determined. A simple closed form solution of the displacement field in a semi-infinite body is obtained for a certain range of pressure loadings at the boundary. The consequences of the yield condition are also discussed.
