material Bilinear1D (1) (2) (3) [4] [5] [6]
# (1) int, unique material tag
# (2) double, elastic modulus
# (3) double, initial yield stress
# [4] double, hardening ratio, default: 0.0
# [5] double, beta, default: 1.0
# [6] double, density, default: 0.0

Remarks

The parameter beta is employed for mixed hardening rule: zero \(0.0\) for kinematic hardening and unity \(1.0\) for isotropic hardening, anything falls in the range indicates a mixed hardening response.
Negative hardening ratio (softening) is supported. However, the yield surface will always be non-negative.
