The principal features involved in the implementation of the double‐hardening constitutive law Monot 1 into a general purpose computer algorithm called MONICA 2,3 are described. These include details of general program structure and of steps taken to overcome problems such as computer storage, computer run‐time, algorithm stability and problems associated with the stress–strain singularity which exists at the intersection of the two yield surfaces.
