@Predictor in @IsotropicStrainHardeningMisesCreep ?

[GhiathMonnet]

Dear All,
I am using @dsl IsotropicStrainHardeningMisesCreep and have a simple questions.
In the internal Newton algoyithm, I suppose that the first estimation of dp is dp = 0 at the begening of the algorythm. Would it be possible to force mfronts to start from anoter estimation ? I mean is there equivalent commande of @Predictor in @dsl Implicit ?
Cheers.

@GhiathMonnet Unfortunately not.

The algorithm search for the increment of the equivalent plastics strain. The initial guess is hard coded to:

(seq_e / (3 * mu * theta)) / 2;

where seq_e is the elastic prediction of the von Mises stress.
