This example problem demonstrates how to determine material parameters for a Chaboche kinematic hardening model using the curve-fitting tool. This example is simulated using the Ansys Mechanical Application. To see this example solved with Ansys Mechanical APDL see Fitting Parameters for a Chaboche Kinematic Hardening Model in the Technology Showcase: Example Problems.
A method is presented to estimate the initial parameters and obtain a least-squares best fit to the data.
