): the kinematic hardening
modulusKinematic Hardening
RecurDyn supports only the bilinear kinematic hardening, and therefore, it is defined by only 1 parameter:
•Kinematic Hardening (): the kinematic hardening
modulus
The linear kinematic hardening is defined by the differential equation:
Where,
Note that the Kinematic Hardening () input field will only be visible
in the plastic material dialog box if Plastic / Isotropic + Kinematic was
selected in the Material dialog box.

If Plastic / Isotropic was selected for the material
type, then the Kinematic Hardening () input field will not be
visible.
