For multiscale systems where ε denotes the ratio between the microscopic and the macroscopic length scale, we show that in the limit ε → 0 we are led to systems where the hysteresis operators at each macroscopic point is a generalized Prandtl-Ishlinskii operator.application/pdfeng510Hysteresis operatorsplay operatorPrandtl–Ishlinskii operatorGamma convergence rate-independent systemhomogenizationelastoplasticityplastic plate modelGeneralized Prandtl-Ishlinskii operators arising from homogenization and dimension reductionReport
