I want to model my material in both tension and compression. Currently, I have modeled my plastic strain to be 0.735%. However, I want to model my plastic strain separately in both compression (0.73%) and tension (0.63%), because my material property behaves differently in compression and tension. How would I do that?
Current material model:
