Plasticity

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Modeling plasticity problems is particularly relevant in nonlinear solid mechanics since plasticity can have a major influence on the behavior of a mechanical structure. One difficulty is that the plastic deformations are generally assumed to be incompressible, leading to volume-locking problems if (low-order) H1 -conforming finite elements are used. Mixed methods avoid these problems, but need additional globally coupled unknowns to enforce the incompressibility of the plastic deformations.
