Rigid-plastic materials are special cases in which energy is dissipated only, and
not stored They can be described without use of internal variables because there
is no elastic strain The total strain is simply equal to the plastic strain To
scribe such materials without internal variables, it would be necessary to
de-velop a theory in which the dissipation could depend on the strain rate, e g

already adopted, but simply introduce a set of constraints c ij H D ij ij 0
Using the f formulation, we start from f 0 and, because of the constraints,
Then, as before, we use the dissipation function d k 2 D D ij ij together with
the constraint c Dkk 0, so that F ijc k 2 Sij Dij Combining this with
Equations (5.25), (5.26) and the constraint equation gives V ijc k 2 Sij Hij ,
from which both the yield surface and the flow rule follow Note that the mean
stress Vkk /kk Fkk is undetermined by the constitutive law because of the

The same result could also have been obtained by specifying the yield surface
as y F F ij ijc c k 2 and deriving the expression for 0 Dij and hence (from
F w wD V The rest of the formulation follows as above Note that if
the two starting functions are g and y, then no additional constraints need to be
introduced This is an example of a more general observation that the g and y
formulation often offers the simplest route for deriving constitutive behaviour
5.3 Frictional Plasticity and Non-associated Flow
In the previous section, we demonstrated that hyperplasticity can reproduce
sim-ple elastic perfectly plastic models where the size of the yield surface in the
devia-toric plane does not depend on the stress state This class of models describes
a wide range of materials – from metals to saturated clays However, most
granu-lar materials exhibit a property called friction, characterized by dependence of
Trang 2shear strength on normal stress As will be demonstrated below, the hyperplastic
formulation can easily reproduce this behaviour with an interesting and
impor-tant restriction – the flow rule for these models cannot be associated
5.3.1 A Two-dimensional Model
We shall start by introducing a simple frictional model defined in a

Consider the model specified by

which, by eliminating /, can be combined to produce the yield surface in the

5.3.2 Dilation
As seen from Figure 5.4, within the framework of the above model, when E > 0, plastic shearing leads to positive increments of normal plastic strains which cause an increase in volume This is a well-known phenomenon in the behaviour
of dense granular materials, called dilation Experimental data, however, show
that the associated flow rule would grossly overestimate the amount of dilation
An associated flow rule is obtained in this model only if P = 0 The ability of this hyperplastic model to accommodate non-associated flow by allowing E > 0 is important for realistic modelling of the behaviour of frictional materials Fur-thermore, in this model, the purely empirical observation of P* = P + E is ex-plained for dense materials that exhibit dilation As demonstrated in Chapter 4, the Second Law of Thermodynamics demands that mechanical dissipation be non-negative Applied to Equation (5.28), this requirement yields P t 0 In the case P = 0, then P* = E, the dissipation is zero, and the flow is “associated” in the conventional sense Clearly such a model of frictional behaviour is unrealistic because of the implication of zero dissipation
Figure 5.4 Yield surface and plastic potential for a frictional model
Trang 4There are no restrictions on the sign of E Clearly, when E = 0, we observe
in-compressible behaviour, which is achieved in the critical state Choosing E < 0
allows for contraction, exhibited by some loose granular materials, at least for
a limited range of strains

5.4.1 Theory of Strain-hardening Hyperplasticity
The general hyperplastic framework was presented in Chapter 4 Here we revisit
briefly some of its highlights, relevant for generation of strain-hardening
hyper-plastic models
Potential Functions
The constitutive behaviour of a dissipative material can be completely defined
by two potential functions The first function is either the Gibbs free energy
ı Į șij, ij,
dependence on temperature in the following because we are not considering
thermal effects If g is specified, then the strain is obtained by
of arguments where a function appears within a differential, so that we would
write, for instance, simply F w wDij g ij
By a suitable choice of Dij, it is possible to write the Gibbs free energy so that
the only term which involves both Vij and Dij is linear in Dij:
1 ij 2 ij 3 ij ij
Furthermore, if g3 is also linear in the stresses, then it is always possible (again
by a suitable choice of Dij) to choose simply g3 Vij V : ij
ij, ij 1 ij 2 ij ij ij
The second function required to define the constitutive behaviour is (assuming
that g is the specified energy function) either a dissipation function
g
ij ij ij
d d V D D t or a yield function y y gV D Fij, ij, ij For a rate-0
independent material, dissipation is a homogeneous function of order one of the
plastic strain rate tensor In this case, dissipation and yield functions are related
by a degenerate Legendre transformation The dissipative generalised stress is
defined as F wij d gV D Dij, ij,ij wD Then from a property of the transforma-ij
tion, it follows that D Owij y gV D Fij, ij, ij wFij, where O is an arbitrary
non-negative multiplier The formulation is completed by the orthogonality
assump-tion of Ziegler (1977), which is equivalent to the assumpassump-tion F Fij ij
Trang 6Link to Conventional Plasticity
The strain hardening hyperplastic formulation, although based entirely on
specification of two potential functions, intrinsically contains all the
compo-nents of conventional plasticity theory As mentioned above, the yield function,
although in generalised stress space, is obtained as a degenerate Legendre
trans-form of the dissipation function When the Gibbs free energy can be written in
the form of (5.43), no elastic-plastic coupling occurs, and it follows that
The interpretation of the above is that D plays exactly the same role as the ij
conventionally defined plastic strain p
H H D w wV ) The generalised stress in this case also acquires
a clear physical meaning: F w V Dij g ij, ij wD V wij ij g2 Dij wD The ij
generalised stress simply differs from the stress by the term
ij ij g ij ij
U D w D wD , known as the “back stress” In conventional kinematic
hardening plasticity, the “back stress” would normally be associated with the
stress coordinates of the centre of the yield surface
The flow rule is given by the expression
, ,
g
ij ij ij ij
where O is an arbitrary non-negative multiplier When the yield (and
dissipa-tion) function does not depend on stress explicitly, this flow rule is associated in
both true and generalised stress spaces
Finally, the hardening rule is also specified by the two potential functions
Isotropic hardening is defined by dependency of the dissipation

we require to be non-negative on thermodynamic grounds, and the rate of

we can write gV Dij, ij g1 Vij g2 Dij V D In this case, as discussed ij ij

Incremental Stress-strain Response
In a way similar to conventional plasticity, two possibilities exist in the
descrip-tion of the incremental response of a strain-hardening hyperplastic material
Consider a non-frictional material, either its state is within the yield surface
(y gD Fij, ij0), in which case no dissipation occurs, and O = 0 If the material
point lies on the yield surface (y gD Fij, ij ), then plastic deformation can 0
occur, provided that O t In the latter case, the incremental response is ob-0
tained by invoking the consistency condition of the yield surface:
g ij ij
Differentiation of Equation (5.44) and substitution of (5.45) in the result and in
(5.46) give the incremental stress-strain response:
Trang 8and the update equations for internal variable and generalised stress:
g ij ij
y

D OwF
The multiplier O defined from Equation (5.48) is derived from the consistency
condition ygD Fij, ij 0 Therefore, it applies only wheny gD Fij, ij 0 and
0
O ! For all other cases (i e. either when y gD Fij, ij0 or when (5.48) results
in a negative O value), then O 0

The constitutive behaviour described by these incremental equations is

that the initial linear elastic range >k k; @ of the model undergoes expansion
For plastic loading, we observe strain hardening with the tangent modulus

E EH E H
In generalised stress space, where the effect of the elastic strain is eliminated,
the behaviour appears as rigid-plastic with linear strain hardening/softening, as
in Figure 5.5b
A further modification is required if this isotropic hardening model is to
pro-vide realistic modelling on subsequent cycles of unloading and reloading The
expression k D k H D would imply softening if (after first having positive
plastic straining) D were later to be reduced The hardening should be a
func-tion of the accumulated plastic strain This can be achieved by introducing
a second kinematic variable E, which is defined through the constraint equation
0
c E D The hardening is then expressed in the form k E Ek H For
a first loading, this modification makes no difference to the model, but it gives
realistic behaviour on unloading, as illustrated in Figure 5.6
Multidimensional Example (the von Mises Yield Surface)
The following model is an example of isotropic hardening hyperplasticity in
six-dimensional stress space The constitutive behaviour of the model is again
de-fined by two potential functions In this case, these are supplemented by the
plastic incompressibility condition, Dkk 0, which is introduced as a constraint
(see Chapter 4) The first function is the specific Gibbs free energy:

The deviatoric and hydrostatic parts of the dissipative generalised stress tensor
are obtained by differentiating the augmented dissipation function:
As expected, the mean dissipative generalised stress is undetermined by the
constitutive equation The plastic strain rates are eliminated from Equation
(5.73) generating the von Mises yield function:

(5.48)–(5.51):

This response is completely consistent with the stress-strain behaviour of the
following isotropic hardening plasticity model The linear elastic region is
bounded by a von Mises yield surface, which can be expressed in true stress
space as V V ij ijc c 2k Dij 2 (Figure 5.7) Within the yield surface, the stress-0

harden-ing, when k Dijc k H D D , the stress-strain response of the model to one-ij ijc c

the accumulated plastic strain, e g through the constraint c E D D ij ijc c 0
and then defining k E E The response will then be as for the modified k H
model in Figure 5.6

The constitutive behaviour described by these incremental equations is shown
in Figure 5.8 From this figure, it is clearly seen that the linear elastic range
>k k; @ of the model does not undergo any expansion, just being translated
along the stress axis following the current stress state In generalised stress
space, where the effects of “back stress” and elastic strain are eliminated, the
behaviour appears as rigid-perfectly plastic (Figure 5.8b)
This behaviour is consistent with the stress-strain behaviour of the St-Venant
model with linear kinematic hardening The original St-Venant model
(Figure 5.2) is a spring with elastic coefficient E in series with a sliding element
with slip stress k This model simulates one-dimensional linear elastic-perfectly
plastic stress-strain behaviour The linear hardening is introduced by
incorporat-ing another sprincorporat-ing with elastic coefficient H (Figure 5.9) in parallel with the
slid-ing element An elongation of the E sprslid-ing gives elastic strain H(e)
, whereas an
elongation of the H spring gives plastic strain D, their sum gives the total strain H
During initial loading OA, before the stress reaches the value of the slip
stress k, the behaviour is linear elastic and is governed by the elongation of the E
