Elasto-plastic theory - ABAQUS

Submitted by Thiago Rieger on

Hello,

 

I have started to study the plasticity theory few months ago. I'm trying to do one exercise in plane strain of one elasto-plastic material in ABAQUS and manually.

When the load is small, the material has just deformed elasticly and the total and elastic strain in z-direction (E33 and EE33) are zero (like say the theory of plane strain).
