Popis: This paper presents a viscoplastic boundary element formulation and numerical implementation of the nonlinear unloading problem of axisymmetric pressure vessels with new material hardening models for which the reverse yield stress does not lie between the kinematic hardening yield stress and the isotopic hardening yield stress of present nonlinear theory. Three nonlinear unloading stress-strain models of high strength low alloy steel with both the strain hardening and Bauschinger effect factor are discussed. The modified Aitken method is used for the unloading iteration process. Comparisons of this paper's results with the data of FEM and experiment are given.
