The authors regret that in the above article we mistakenly wrote the components of body force in Eqs. (11a), (11b), (24a)
and (24b) which lead to the errors in the Eqs. (25), (27a), (28), (29a), (29b), (32a), (32b) and the figures related to plastic
stresses(Figs. 5, 6, 9, 10 and 11). These equations and figures are corrected as follows.
