Linear kinematic hardening¶

Overview¶

This object implements simple linear kinematic hardening. The backstress is defined as

$\mathbf{X} = -H \bm{\chi}.$

The model requires a length 6 history variable ( $\bm{\chi}$ ) and maps to a length 6 backstress ( $\mathbf{X}$ ).

Warning

All of the NEML yield surfaces assume the opposite of the standard sign convention for isotropic and kinematic hardening. The hardening model is expected to return a negative value of the isotropic hardening stress and a negative value of the backstress.

Parameters¶

Parameter	Object type	Description	Default
`H`	`neml::Interpolate`	Linear hardening constant	No
