In this paper, the algorithmic formulation of chemoplastic models with internal couplings is discussed. Developed within the framework of closed reactive porous continua, chemoplasticity allows for the introduction of the kinetics of a chemical reaction directly at the macro-level of material description. The resulting couplings (chemo-elastic, chemoplastic hardening/softening) slightly complicate the integration of stresses at the material level. In this paper, the numerical integration of stresses for this type of constitutive laws is presented.
