Uniaxial and non-proportionally multiaxial ratcheting of SS304 stainless steel at room temperature: experiments and simulations

The uniaxial and non-proportionally multiaxial ratcheting behaviors of SS304 stainless steel at room temperature were initially researched by experiment and then were theoretically described by a cyclic constitutive model in the framework of unified visco-plasticity. The effects of cyclic stress amplitude, mean stress, and their histories on the ratcheting were experimentally investigated under uniaxial and different multiaxial loading paths. The shapes of non-proportional loading paths were linear, circular, elliptical and rhombic, respectively. In the constitutive model, the rate-dependent behavior of the material was reflected by a viscous term; the cyclic flow and cyclic hardening behaviors of the material under asymmetrical stress-controlled cycling were reflected by the evolution rules of kinematic hardening back stress and isotropic deforming resistance, respectively. The effect of loading history on the ratcheting was also considered by introducing two fading memorization functions for maximum inelastic strain amplitude and isotropic deformation resistance, respectively, into the constitutive model. The effect of multiaxial loading path on the ratcheting was reflected by a non-proportional factor defined in this work. The predicting ability of the developed model was proved to be good by comparing the simulations with corresponding experiments.     

转动惯量法在多轴疲劳本构关系预测中的应用

一些金属材料在承担多轴非比例加载过程时,会产生额外非比例附加强化或软化现象,这一现象往往会导致在评估疲劳寿命时因为材料本构关系的不确定而引起预测结果出现较大误差．因此基于单轴疲劳理论得出的寿命预测模型并不能准确地预测多轴非比例疲劳加载下的材料寿命．针对此问题,本文阐述了非比例附加强化效应产生的原因及结果,结合转动惯量法的理论和塑性增量法,建立了预测多轴低周疲劳加载下循环应力-应变曲线的数值计算模型．利用316L 不锈钢试样在5 种加载路径下的实验数据对预测结果进行了验证,结果表明该模型具有良好的预测有效性及精度．     

Multiscale experimental investigations about the cyclic behavior of the 304L SS

This work follows a series of experiments carried out earlier at INSA of Rouen (Hassan, T., Taleb, L., Krishna, S., 2008. Influence of non-proportional loading paths on ratcheting responses and simulations by two recent cyclic plasticity models. Int. J. Plast. 24, 1863–1889). It investigates the elastoplastic cyclic behavior of a 304L stainless steel at room temperature. In a first step the cross path effect on ratcheting is confirmed, as well as the crucial role of the loading path non-proportionality. Strain controlled tests are also conducted for different strain amplitudes and loading paths. Cross-hardening effect appears more important when the shearing sequence is followed by the axial one. Moreover for alternating axial and shearing cycles, this phenomenon occurs after each crossing sequence leading to a very significant strain hardening, at least of the same order as the one obtained after a circular strain path. Yet, the magnitude of the observed over hardening does not necessarily seem a function of the cumulated plastic strain.     

Influence of non-proportional loading on ratcheting responses and simulations by two recent cyclic plasticity models

Aubin and her coworkers conducted a unique set of experiments demonstrating the influence of loading non-proportionality on ratcheting responses of duplex stainless steel. In order to further explore their new observation, a set of experiments was conducted on stainless steel (SS) 304L under various biaxial stress-controlled non-proportional histories. This new set of data reiterated Aubin and her coworkers’ observation and illustrated many new responses critical to model development and validation. Two recent and different classes of cyclic plasticity models, the modified Chaboche model proposed by Bari and Hassan and the version of the multi-mechanism model proposed by Taleb and Cailletaud, are evaluated in terms of their simulations of the SS304L non-proportional ratcheting responses. A modeling scheme for non-proportional ratcheting responses using the kinematic hardening rule parameters in addition to the conventionally used isotropic hardening rule parameter (yield surface size change) in the modified Chaboche model is evaluated. Strengths and weaknesses of the models in simulating the non-proportional ratcheting responses are identified. Further improvements of these models needed for improving the non-proportional ratcheting simulations are suggested in the paper.

An updated version of the multimechanism model for cyclic plasticity

In this paper we consider the elastoplastic behavior of the 304L stainless steel under cyclic loading at room temperature. After the experimental investigations presented in Taleb and Hauet (2009), the present work deals with modeling in the light of the new observations. An improved version of the multimechanism model is proposed in which the isotropic variable is revisited in order to take into account the non-proportional effect of the loading as well as the strain memory phenomenon. A particular attention has been paid to the identification process in order to capture the main important phenomena: relative parts of isotropic and kinematic hardening, time dependent effects, non-proportionality effect, strain amplitude dependence. Only strain controlled tests have been used for the identification process. The capabilities of the model with “only” 17 parameters are evaluated considering a number of proportional and non-proportional stress and strain controlled tests.     

Time-dependent ratchetting experiments of SS304 stainless steel

The time-dependent strain cyclic characteristics and ratchetting behaviours of SS304 stainless steel were investigated by uniaxial/multiaxial cyclic loading tests at room and elevated temperatures (350 and 700 °C). The effects of loading rate, peak/valley strain or stress holds, ambient temperature and non-proportional loading path on the cyclic softening/hardening and ratchetting behaviours of the material were discussed. It is shown that: the cyclic deformation of the material presents remarkable time-dependence at room temperature and 700 °C; the cyclic hardening feature and ratchetting strain depend significantly on straining or stressing rate, hold-time, ambient temperature and the non-proportionality of loading path; the time-dependent ratchetting is resulted from the slight opening of hysteresis loop and visco-plasticity together, and the viscosity is a dominating factor at 700 °C; at 350 °C, abnormal rate-dependence and quick shakedown of ratchetting are observed due to the dynamic strain aging of the material at this temperature. Some significant conclusions are obtained, which are useful to construct a constitutive model to describe the time-dependent ratchetting behaviour of the material. It is also stated that the unified visco-plastic constitutive model discussed here cannot provide reasonable simulation to the time-dependent ratchetting at 700 °C, especially to that with certain peak/valley stress hold, since the effect of the high viscosity on time-dependent ratchetting cannot be properly described by using a unified visco-plastic flow rule.     

Cyclic plasticity modeling with the distribution of non-linear relaxations approach

Motivated by the distribution of non-linear relaxation (DNLR) approach, a phenomenological model is proposed in order to describe the cyclic plasticity behavior of metals under proportional and non-proportional loading paths with strain-controlled conditions. Such a model is based on the generalization of the Gibbs's relationship outside the equilibrium of uniform system and the use of the fluctuation theory to analyze the material dissipation due to its internal reorganization. The non-linear cyclic stress–strain behavior of metals notably under complex loading is of particular interest in this study. Since the hardening effects are described appropriately and implicitly by the model, thus, a host of inelastic behavior of metals under uniaxial and multiaxial cyclic loading paths are successfully predicted such as, Bauschinger, strain memory effects as well as additional hardening. After calibrating the model parameters for two metallic materials, the model has demonstrated obviously its ability to describe the cyclic elastic-inelastic behavior of the nickel base alloy Waspaloy and the stainless steel 316L. The model is then implemented in a commercial finite element code simulating the cyclic stress–strain response of a thin-walled tube specimen. The numerical responses are in good agreement with experimental results.

Macro versus micro-scale constitutive models in simulating proportional and nonproportional cyclic and ratcheting responses of stainless steel 304

A recent study by Hassan et al. [Hassan, T., Taleb, L., Krishna, S., 2008. Influences of nonproportional loading paths on ratcheting responses and simulations by two recent cyclic plasticity models. Int. J. Plasticity, 24, 1863–1889.] demonstrated that some of the nonproportional ratcheting responses under stress-controlled loading histories cannot be simulated reasonably by two recent cyclic plasticity models. Two major drawbacks of the models identified were: (i) the stainless steel 304 demonstrated cyclic hardening under strain-controlled loading whereas cyclic softening under stress-controlled loading, which depends on the strain-range and which the existing models cannot describe; (ii) the change in biaxial ratcheting responses due to the change in the degree of nonproportionality were not simulated well by the models. Motivated by these findings, two modified cyclic plasticity models are evaluated in predicting a broad set of cyclic and ratcheting response of stainless steel 304. The experimental responses used in evaluating the modified models included both proportional (uniaxial) and nonproportional (biaxial) loading responses from Hassan and Kyriakides [Hassan, T., Kyriakides, S., 1994a. Ratcheting of cyclically hardening and softening materials. Part I: uniaxial behavior. Int. J. Plasticity, 10, 149–184; Hassan, T., Kyriakides, S., 1994b. Ratcheting of cyclically hardening and softening materials. Part II: multiaxial behavior. Int. J. Plasticity, 10, 185–212.] and Hassan et al. [Hassan, T., Taleb, L., Krishna, S., 2008. Influences of nonproportional loading paths on ratcheting responses and simulations by two recent cyclic plasticity models. Int. J. Plasticity, 24, 1863–1889.] The first model studied is a macro-scale, phenomenological, constitutive model originally proposed by Chaboche et al. [Chaboche, J.L., Dang-Van, K., Cordier, G., 1979. Modelization of the strain memory effect on the cyclic hardening of 316 stainless steel. In: Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on SMiRT, Div. L, Berlin, Germany, L11/3.]. This model was systematically modified for incorporating strain-range dependent cyclic hardening–softening, and proportional and nonproportional loading memory parameters. The second model evaluated is a polycrystalline model originally proposed by Cailletaud [Cailletaud, G., 1992. A micromechanical approach to inelastic behavior of metals. Int. J. Plasticity, 8, 55–73.] based on crystalline slip mechanisms. These two models are scrutinized against simulating hysteresis loop shape, cyclic hardening–softening, cross-effect, cyclic relaxation, subsequent cyclic softening and finally a broad set of ratcheting responses under uniaxial and biaxial loading histories. The modeling features which improved simulations for these responses are elaborated in the paper. In addition, a novel technique for simulating both the monotonic and cyclic responses with one set of model parameters is developed and validated.     

An experimental study of inhomogeneous cyclic plastic deformation of 1045 steel under multiaxial cyclic loading

An experimental study was conducted on the inhomogeneous cyclic plastic deformation of 1045 steel under multiaxial cyclic loading. Thin-walled tubular specimens were used and small strain gages were bonded on the specimen surface to characterize the local deformation. The controlled loading paths included cyclic tension–compression, cyclic torsion, proportional axial-torsion, 90°-out-of-phase axial-torsion, and fully reversed torsion with a constant axial stress. The maximum stress in each experiment was lower than the lower yield stress of the material. It was found that the cyclic plastic deformation within the gage section of the specimen under multiaxial stress state followed the three-stage process that was observed from uniaxial loading, namely, incubation, propagation, and saturation. The plastic deformation was significantly inhomogeneous during the propagation stage, and the inhomogeneity continued through the saturation stage. The duration of each stage and the saturated strains were dependent on the cyclic stress amplitude and the loading path. Multiaxial stress state reduced the incubation stage. With identical equivalent stress magnitude, the nonproportional loading path resulted in the shortest incubation and propagation stages, and the saturated equivalent plastic strain magnitude was the smallest. Although the deformation over the gage section was inhomogeneous, the plastic deformation in a given local area was found to be practically isotropic.     

Ratchetting under tension–torsion loadings: experiments and modelling

This paper is concerned with the mechanical behaviour of 316 austenitic stainless steel under multiaxial loadings and particular attention is paid to ratchetting under tension–torsion non-proportional loadings. First, a series of uniaxial tests and biaxial tests has been carried out in order to calibrate five different cyclic plasticity models based on an isotropic hardening rule and a non-linear kinematic hardening rule. It is shown that this class of models gives quite good agreement between the experimental and numerical results. Second, another series of ratchetting tests has been carried out under tension–torsion loadings in order to test the prediction capacities of the previous models. It is shown that whereas the models have been calibrated with similar loading paths, four of the five selected models give poor predictions.     

Constitutive modeling of strain range dependent cyclic hardening

In this paper, a new approach for constitutive modeling of strain range dependent cyclic hardening is proposed by extending the kinematic hardening model based on the critical state of dynamic recovery. It is assumed that isotropic, as well as kinematic, hardening consists of several parts, and that each part of isotropic hardening evolves when the corresponding part of kinematic hardening is in the critical state of dynamic recovery. The extended model is capable of simulating the cyclic hardening behavior in which different characteristics of cyclic hardening appear depending on strain range. The model is verified by simulating the relatively large cyclic straining tests of 304 stainless steel at ambient temperature, in which cyclic hardening does not stabilize before rupture if strain range exceeds a certain value. The model is further verified by predicting the history dependence of cyclic hardening under incremental cyclic loading and the maximum plastic strain dependence of strain hardening in cyclic tension.     

Investigation of subsequent viscoplastic deformation of austenitic stainless steel subjected to cyclic preloading

This paper investigates the effects of cyclic preloading on the subsequent viscoplastic deformation. A series of experiments such as the subsequent creep, subsequent stress relaxation, and cyclic loading with strain rate changes after cyclic preloading were conducted with Type 304 stainless steel at room temperature. The cyclic proportional and non-proportional loadings were conducted as cyclic preloadings. Tension-compression loading was chosen as the cyclic proportional loading, and circular and cruciform loading as the cyclic non-proportional loading. The experimental results showed that the subsequent deformation changes with the number of cycles of cyclic preloading. The differences in the subsequent deformation were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The observations suggest that changes in the dislocation structure depending on the number of cycles of cyclic preloading affect the subsequent viscoplastic deformation.
