Plasticity Properties of Plastics
Plasticity Properties of Plastics- When modeling plastic
most times it is necessary to look at plasticity. Plasticity describes
the behavior that takes place beyond the yield point in a material (plastic
region). When a material goes into the plastic region (in most cases)
the strain cannot be recovered. Most simulations use a curve of plastic
strain and true stress to define behavior beyond the yield point. The
plastic stress strain data is combined with elastic data to create an
entire curve to define the materials behavior all the way through the
plastic region. Plastic strain starts from zero strain and continues to
the breaking point of the material (this may require changing solution
option to account for large deformations). |
