Abstract: Within the framework of a purely mechanical rate-type theory of finitely deforming elastic-plastic materials, a simple proof is given of a normality condition which has been shown by Naghdi & Trapp [6] to follow from a physically plausible work assumption. In addition, a variation of the proof is used to demonstrate convexity of yield surfaces for a special class of materials, a result which was also originally established by Naghdi & Trapp [10].
