Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Hi,

I did not look so closely to your code in your text but, for what concerns the 
line at [*] the "(1 / phys->ks) * (trialForce - shearForce)" term gives the 
plastic/irreversible component of the increment in shear displacement.
(Not the total one, in an elasto-plastic wording)

It is then just fair to multiply it with current force to get a purely 
dissipated work.
(and, in case that was your question, there is no need to speak about dashpot  
;-) )
