modeling plasticity in ABAQUS

Submitted by ghso on

hi 

I want to model a metal with nonlinear kinematic hardening material in ABAQUS. As i read in its user guide manual there is one option in plastic hardening named combined. I want to know if it is an option for modeling a material for combined kinematic and isotropic hardening or nonlinear kinematic?

thanks in advance

Hi,

 

in my opinion the best way of doing it is to implement your material model and its constitutuve equations in a user material.

 

Best,
