A mathematical theory of plasticity for strainhardening materials exhibiting initial anisotropy

In this report a model is presented for anisotropic hardening in continued plastic deformation of materials exhibiting anisotropy due to initial permanent strains. - Isotropic material behaviour is assumed for all elastic deformations. However, the permanent strains give rise to anisotropy with respect to subseqfuent yielding. - The plastic...
