Abstract

AbstractIn this contribution, the operator split technique is applied to the time integration within viscoplasticity for explicit FEM. As an example, the finite strain viscoplastic material model of Shutov and Kreißig is analyzed. In the new solution scheme, some evolution equations are solved using an explicit update formula for implicit time stepping. The solution procedure is split into three steps: an elastic predictor and two viscoplastic corrector steps. Aspects of accuracy and stability of the algorithm are discussed. As shown, the proposed method is superior compared to a fully explicit integration of evolution equations. (© 2014 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
