Homogenization of rate-dependent inelastic models of monotone type

Using the periodic unfolding method we derive the homogenized equations for the quasi-static initial boundary value problem with internal variables, which model the deformation behavior of viscoplastic materials with a periodic microstructure. The free energy associated with the problem is allowed to be positive semi-definite.
