The value of equivalent strain allows to characterize at the measurement moment the structural state of the material that was formed as a result of the previous loading.
The value of effective plastic strain is the integral of stepwise increments of plastic deformation for a period of time t .(http://www.math.spbu.ru/diffjournal/pdf/lobanov.pdf, p. 22, formula 8).
The concept of the accumulated strain is widely used as a parameter of changes of the mechanical characteristics of material at deformation hardening or softening and, sometimes, as a failure criterion at low cycle fatigue. It only makes sense at alternating loading (http://www.unn.ru/pages/e-library/ppp/2011_73/16.pdf).
Unfortunately, speedily I can to suggest only links to articles in Russian...
