Our analysis focused on the mixed energetic-dissipative potential (MP) in the context of higher-order strain gradient plasticity (SGP), demonstrating that the MP limit for M -> infinity converges to a less-than-quadratic potential under proportional loading conditions.
We analyse the mixed energetic-dissipative potential (MP) recently proposed by our group to predict, within higher-order strain gradient plasticity (SGP), reliable size-dependent responses under general loading histories. Such an MP follows former proposals by Chaboche, Ohno and co-workers for nonlinear kinematic hardening in the context of size-independent metal plasticity. The MP is given by M quadratic addends that each transitions, at a different threshold value, into a linear dissipative contribution. Hence, the MP involves 2M positive material parameters, given by the M threshold values and the M moduli weighing each quadratic recoverable term. We analytically demonstrate that, under proportional loading, the MP limit for M -> infinity converges to a less-than-quadratic potential with well-defined properties. This result is of crucial importance for identifying the material parameters of any model adopting the MP. Moreover, our analysis provides a formula for the characterization of the energetic and dissipative parts of any possible MP limit, showing that, regarding the capability to describe the effect of diminishing size within SGP, the MP can be selected such that its contribution to the strengthening (i.e. an increase in yield point) is mostly dissipative, whereas its contribution to the increase in strain hardening is mostly recoverable.
