[CIG-SHORT] plastic deformation

Hi Charles

Thank you very much. That is very helpful. 

Eq.(5.113): Yes, cohesion c should not be there and the missing term is 3*\alpha_f*P^I.

Can you please confirm that derivative of d w.r.t epsilon i.e. Eqs.(5.123), with (5.124), is correct?
 
Eq.(5.117): Should P^I be multiplied with R_i as well? Although, this won't change the tangent matrix.

I saw a recent paper (A new exact integration method for the Drucker–Prager elastoplastic model with linear isotropic hardening,
László Szabó and Attila Kossa, Int J Solids Structures, 2012) that looks useful because it has exact expressions for tangent matrix.
What do you think about these methods?

Thanks again
Birendra

 Hi Birendra,
 
 Probably the best reference
 for the Drucker-Prager stuff is the finite element book by
 Bathe (Finite Element Procedures, 1995).  Also, much of the
 solution method for Drucker-Prager elastoplastic materials
 is analogous to the procedure for power-law viscoelastic
 materials.
 
 1.  Equation
 5.104 is just isolating the elastic deformation component,
 so that the stress can be computed by operating on the
 elastic strain. We divide this into deviatoric and
 volumetric components, which makes things easier.
 
 2.  What we mean here is
 taking the scalar inner product (defined at the beginning of
 section 5.3.1).
 
 3.  The
 cohesion appears to be a typo (I actually think it is left
 over from an older derivation).  In going through this,
 however, I believe I discovered a missing factor of 3 * P^I
 in this equation.  I will need to double-check this and see
 if this is correct.  If you have derived this equation
 separately, I would appreciate confirmation.
 
 4.  Are you referring to the
 split into elastic and plastic parts?  The additive
 decomposition is frequently used, although I have also seen
 a multiplicative decomposition (see the book referred to
 above).
 
 Cheers,
 Charles

 multiplying Eq.(5.100) on both sides by df/dsigma : C^E. But
 this lamda does not quite look like (5.109) because of
 (5.104). also, I would like to understand d in Eq(5.110).
