| Summary: | Abstract A new monolithic solution scheme for thermo-elasto-plasticity and thermo-elasto-plastic frictional contact with finite deformations and finite strains is presented. A key feature is the reformulation of all involved inequality constraints, namely those of Hill’s orthotropic yield criterion as well as the normal and tangential contact constraints, in terms of non-smooth nonlinear complementarity functions. Using a consistent linearization, this system of equations can be solved with a non-smooth variant of Newton’s method. A quadrature point-wise decoupled plastic constraint enforcement and the use of so-called dual basis functions in the mortar contact formulation allow for a condensation of all additionally introduced variables, thus resulting in an efficient formulation that contains discrete displacement and temperature degrees of freedom only, while, at the same time, an exact constraint enforcement is assured. Numerical examples from thermo-plasticity, thermo-elastic frictional contact and thermo-elasto-plastic frictional contact demonstrate the wide range of applications covered by the presented method.
