Dear Prof. Wolfgang,
                                  Thank you for sharing the tutorial step. 
I am using the plasticity (material non linearity) part of it with the 
surface force (Neuman BC) as a mechanical load. When I remove the load the 
plasticized domain comes back to its original (undeformed) state.
* I was wondering if this code with current mathematical model of 
plasticity (as mentioned in the corresponding research article) could be 
further developed to evaluate the plastic strain of the plasticized region?*
Moreover, this plastic deformation could be then stored on Gauss points so 
that one can also visualize that what is the final shape of the plasticized 
domain after removing load. 
Thank you!
