Extensive experimental research has been conducted on annealed OFHC copper subjected to cyclic nonproportional strain histories. If the material was dynamically stabilized by uniaxial cycling, a change to nonproportional cycling caused further hardening until the material response continued to be the same (or stable) from cycle to cycle. After attaining stable conditions for one strain path, a cycle whose effective strain amplitude was approximately equal to or greater than those of previous cycles, completely erased the influence of past strain histories. A kinematic hardening incremental plasticity model which combined a Tresca yield surface translating inside a Tresca limit surface according to the Mroz hardening rule was able to predict the most complex experimental stress-strain behavior with great accuracy.
