The Application of Thermal and Creep Effects to the Combined Isotropic-Kinematic Hardening Model for Inelastic Structural Analysis by the Finite Element Method.

Abstract

In this paper, a formulation is presented for a combined isotropic-kinematic hardening rule which includes both creep and thermal effects. The resulting model accounts for temperature dependent material properties as well as the Bauschinger effect for average loading. The virtual work equation and resulting matrix equations are derived for implementation of the model into a general purpose finite element code. (Author)
