A Johnson-Cook elasto-plastic material law is defined for shell elements. Input user
data includes density, Young’s modulus, Poisson ratio, yield stress, hardening
parameters, hardening modulus, maximum stress, and maximum strain.
The Johnson-Cook model:
Maximum stress and plastic strain are taken into account. Shell thickness is
variable.
Two methods are available to compute plastically admissible stresses:
Projection by return radial
Iterative projection with three Newton iterations
