In this paper, we present the space-time formulation using the Proper Generalized Decomposition (PGD) to solve an elastoplastic structure under quasistatic loading. Here, the solution, dependent on space and time, is built by iteratively summing up enrichments until convergence is obtained. Thereby, each enrichment functional is represented by the dyadic product of spatial and temporal functions, which we call spatial and temporal modes. The proposed strategy is included into a finite element framework resulting in two coupled equations, one in space and one in time. Those two equations are solved simultaneously using the fixed-point algorithm. We visualize and mechanically interpret the evolution of the spatial and temporal modes within the proposed iterative scheme. The test structure is represented by the discretization of an elastoplastic frame geometry subjected to an external cyclic force history. The results are compared with the conventional iteration method. It is shown that inelastic deformation can be directly located by the evolution of the temporal functions. However, the corresponding spatial modes show a high correlation containing global elastic and plastic deformation patterns that can be interpreted by an orthonormal basis representation using the singular value decomposition.
