The paper presents the chosen differential material models and approaches based on step by step solution respecting the elastic and plastic conditions. In the centre of authors´ interest is the numerical method study of the plastic zones identification or study of residual stresses distribution in the beam's cross-section. The results obtained from new MATLAB's programs are compared with FEM models in ADINA. ER
