Abstract
Using the Finite Element Method, an analysis is given of the indentati on of an elastic-plastic half-space by a rigid sphere. In particular, attention is focused on the effect of hardening rules on the material response. The materials considered are supposed to exhibit isotropic a nd kinematic hardening. Moreover, it is shown that the possibility of similar behavior due to effects of friction can be ruled out.
