.. _V6.03.112: **v6.03.112** FORMA10 - Practical work from the "Advanced use" training: loading path ==== **Summary:** This test illustrates, on a material point, the influence of the loading path on the response of elastoplastic behavior. It highlights the effects of time discretization. It is inspired by test SSNP15: a material point, made of a plastic material with linear isotropic work hardening, is subjected to both tensile and shear forces. The main advantage of this test lies in the non-radial nature of the load. Modeling A corresponds to force-imposed calculation, with behavior VMIS_ISOT_LINE, and illustrates the influence of a discretization in rough time compared to the solution obtained with a finer time step. To obtain a solution with a finer time step, we force the re-division of the time step on a criterion based on the increment of the cumulative plasticity (modeling B). .. toctree:: :hidden: self .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :numbered: Probl_me_de_r_f_rence Solution_de_r_f_rence Mod_lisation_A Mod_lisation_B Synth_se_des_r_sultats
