… Isotropic Hardening<br />

Training Manual<br />

• Plotting the stress-strain curve enables an understanding of what<br />

occurs during a loading and reverse loading cycle:<br />

<br />

Note that the subsequent<br />

yield in compression is<br />

equal to the highest stress<br />

attained during the tensile<br />

phase.<br />

Isotropic hardening is often<br />

used for large strain or<br />

proportional loading<br />

simulations. It is usually<br />

not applicable for cyclic<br />

loading.<br />
