Strain-Space Plasticity: Current StatusB. M. Dawari
Lecturer in Applied Mechanics
Stress-space plasticity conceptualized by Naghdi and co-researchers is an alternative formulation and considered to be superior in many ways to conventional stress-
space plasticity. This article is intended to highlight the merits of strain-space formulation as well as current research status.
1. INTRODUCTION

4. APPLICATIONS OF STRAIN-SPACE PLASTICITY
A thin square plate of size 210 mm x 210mm subjected to uniaxial stress is analysed with 100 eight noded isoparametric elements. The material properties are E = 210
GPa, = 0.30.

It is demonstrated that [4] all three types of beahviour strain-hardening, perfect plasticity and strain-softening can be captured with a single set of constitutive equations.
5. SUMMARY
The current status of strain-space plasticity based on Iliushin postulate is reviewed here. The merits of this formulation are highlighted. It is advocated that strain-space
formulation has great potential in engineering applications particularly for damage-coupled analysis.
