Abstract
Advanced light metals have recently attracted the interest of the aerospace and automotive industry. The need for accurate description of their cyclic inelastic response under various loading histories becomes increasingly important. Cyclic mean stress relaxation and ratcheting are two of the phenomena under investigation. A combined kinematic - isotropic hardening model is implemented for the simulation of the behavior of Aluminum and Titanium alloys in uniaxial mean stress relaxation and ratcheting. The obtained results indicate that the model can perform well in these cases. This preliminary analysis provides useful insight for the evaluation of the model's capabilities.
