Abstract: | Summary Incremental plasticity theories are being incorporated into many engineering numerical analyses. There are two basic categories of incremental plasticity algorithms, (i) multiple surface such as proposed by Mróz and Garud, and (ii) the Armstrong-Frederick type as modified by Chaboche et al. Engineering bounds on the general applicability of these models for cyclic loading have not been the subject of a detailed investigation. Similar first order stress-strain results are obtained for proportional loadings when either category of hardening rules is chosen.A -circle loading path in deviatoric stress space was identified as a severe test of the algorithms. A closed form solution can be obtained for this loading path, so that the phenomena noted cannot be attributed to numerical errors. While this loading is highly idealized, analogous results are also noted for 90 degree out-of-phase tension-torsion. Multiple surface and the associated two surface models with a stationary bounding surface are shown to have both theoretical and numerical problems for the severe cyclic loading under consideration. The Armstrong-Frederick class of models demonstrates a diminished sensitivity to modeling parameters, as well as a single-valued stress-strain representation for both severe nonproportional loading paths investigated.List of symbols
