We discuss the accuracy of finite-element solutions for metals possessing domi-nant plasticity, resulting in an incompressible response in a large deformation field. It is known that poor numerical solutions are obtained for the constrained problem due to incompressibility of deformed metals, but they can be improved by selecting an appropriate shape function and numerical integration technique, as well as by applying the mixed method derived from Lagrangian multipliers. Many studies have been made for rigid-plastic finite-element solutions so far, but large-deformation elastoplastic structural analysis is rarely discussed in the literature. In this work, we discuss the advantages of such techniques in large-deformation analysis using the Jaumann stress rate and isotropic hardening hypoelasticity model.
