Abstract

Complex constitutive equations including non‐linear kinematic as well as isotropic hardening rules are introduced in the framework of the finite element method to analyse the behaviour of structures in quasi‐static elasto‐viscoplasticity under cyclic loadings. An implicit time marching process is developed together with a substructuring technique and the corresponding numerical details are underlined. Practical examples are treated to demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed finite element code.
