*CAP HARDENING

Optional parameters

DEPENDENCIES: Set this parameter equal to the number of field variable dependencies included in the definition of the hydrostatic yield stress, in addition to temperature. If this parameter is omitted, it is assumed that the hydrostatic yield stress depends only on the volumetric plastic strain and, possibly, on the temperature. See Material Data Definition for more information.
SCALESTRESS: Set this parameter equal to the factor by which you want the yield stress to be scaled.

Data lines to define Drucker-Prager/Cap plasticity hardening

First line

Hydrostatic pressure yield stress. (The initial tabular value must be greater than zero, and values must increase with increasing volumetric inelastic strain.)
Absolute value of the corresponding volumetric inelastic strain.
Temperature.
First field variable.
Second field variable.
Etc., up to five field variables.

Subsequent lines (only needed if the DEPENDENCIES parameter has a value greater than five)

Sixth field variable.
Etc., up to eight field variables per line.

Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessary to define the dependence of hydrostatic yield stress on volumetric inelastic strain (in Abaqus/Standard) or volumetric plastic strain (in Abaqus/Explicit) and, if needed, on temperature and other predefined field variables.
