Correct determination of ratcheting strain is very important in cyclic loading. A new simple yield surface distortion model is presented and its effect on cyclic loading and ratcheting prediction is investigated in this research. Model of Baltov and Sawczuk was modified in order to be able to consider directional distortion of the yield surface. Movement of the yield surface center is modeled by Chaboche's nonlinear kinematic hardening model. Isotropic hardening was also considered. A triangular function is used and necessary cyclic plasticity relations are developed. Convexity of the proposed model is discussed and verified. Performance of the proposed model in ratcheting strain prediction is investigated in multiaxial non proportional loadings under different paths. Experimental results with stress, strain and combined stress-strain control paths are compared with the proposed model results. Incorporation of the yield surface distortion of this new model, predicts better ratcheting strain for different stress, strain and stress-strain paths.
