Abstract
A general plasticity model is developed which is able to predict a cyclic strain accumulation phenomenon, sometimes called cyclic creep. To assess the consequences of the phenomenon for nonhomogeneous stress states, simple forms of the model are used in the analysis of two idealized structural elements. Very large stresses are found to develop for continued load cycling.
