Abstract

This work considers semi- and fully discrete approximations to the primal problem in elastoplasticity. The unknowns are displacement and internal variables, and the problem takes the form of an evolution variational inequality. Strong convergence of time-discrete, as well as spatially and fully discrete approximations, is established without making any assumptions of regularity over and above those established in the proof of well-posedness of this problem.
