β¦ Synopsis
This article discusses a general framework for the analysis of initial/boundary-value problems of rate-independent finite elasto-plasticity based on the theory of Green and Naghdi. A constitutive model is developed within the context of the above theory employing generalized measures of Lagrangian strain and work-conjugate measures of stress. Computational implications of the proposed formulation are discussed in conjunction with an implicit time integrator for the differential/algebraic equations of plastic flow. Representative numerical simulations demonstrate the applicability and predictive capacity of the model in the presence of large plastic deformations.

## Abstract In this paper two plane strain quadrilateral elements with two and four variables, are proposed. These elements are applied to the analysis of finite strain elastoβplastic problems. The elements are based on the enhanced strain and Bβbar methodologies and possess a stabilizing term. The
