The limit equilibrium of an anisotropic medium under the general plasticity condition

A theory of the limit equilibrium of an anisotropic medium under the general plasticity condition in the plane strain state is developed. The proposed yield criterion (the limit equilibrium condition) is obtained by combining the von Mises–Hill yield criterion of an ideally plastic anisotropic material and Prandtl's limit equilibrium condition for a medium under the general plasticity law. It is shown that the problem is statically determinate, i.e., if the boundary conditions are specified in stresses, the stress state in plastic region can only be obtained using equilibrium equations. It is established that the equations describing the stress state are hyperbolic and have two families of characteristic curves that intersect at variable angles. In deriving the equations describing the velocity field, the material is assumed to be rigid plastic, and the associated law of flow is applied. It is shown that the equations for the velocities are also hyperbolic, and their characteristic curves are identical with those of the equations for stresses. However, the directions of the principal values of the stress and strain rate tensors are different due to the anisotropy of the material. The characteristic directions differ from the isotropic case in that the normal and tangential components of the stress tensor do not satisfy the limit conditions. It is established that the equations obtained allow of partial solutions, and in this case, at least one family of characteristic curves consists of straight lines. The conditions along the lines of discontinuity of the velocity are investigated, and it is shown that, as in the isotropic case, these are characteristic curves of the system of governing equations. In the anisotropic formulation, the well-known Rankine problem of the limit state of a ponderable layer is solved. From an analysis of the velocity field it is shown that plastic flow of the entire layer is possible only for a slope angle equal to the angle of internal friction. For slope angles less than the angle of internal friction, the solutions obtained are solutions of problems of the pressure of the medium on the retaining walls. The change in this pressure as a function of the parameters of anisotropy is investigated, and turns out to be significant.     

Anisotropic multiplicative elastoplasticity for the prediction of earings in sheet forming

In this work, the simulation of earings in cup drawing by means of a recently developed anisotropic combined hardening material model is discussed. The model represents a multiplicative formulation of anisotropic elastoplasticity in the finite strain regime with nonlinear kinematic and isotropic hardening. Plastic anisotropy is described by the use of second-order structure tensors as additional arguments in the representation of the yield function and the plastic flow rule. The evolution equations are integrated by a form of the exponential map that preserves the plastic volume and the symmetry of the internal variables. Finite element simulations of cylindrical cup drawing processes are performed by means of ABAQUS/Standard where the discussed material model has been implemented into a user-defined reduced integration solid-shell element.

Construction of the Equivalent Plastic Strain Increment

Strain hardening plastic deformation of a material possessing a yield locus (f(σ_ij)) which may be written as a homogeneous function of the stress components (σ_ij), and which obeys the classical associated flow rule for metals (e.g. Bishop and Hill, 1951) is considered. The material may be anisotropic and may display plastic dilatation. A method is given for constructing the equivalent plastic strain increment in such a way that the increment of plastic work is always equal to the product of the equivalent plastic strain increment and the equivalent yield stress. Construction of the equivalent plastic strain at a corner in the yield locus is given. The method given here is implied in classical treatments of hardening (e.g. Hill, 1950) but seems not to have been given explicitly heretofore.     

Flexure of transversely isotropic plates with a low resistance to transverse deformation

This study is concerned with the stress field around holes in plates of a transversely isotropic material, such as a reinforced plastic, with a low resistance to transverse, normal, and tangential deformation. The problem is solved on the basis of the general theory according to I. N. Vekua. It is shown that in the case of a strongly anisotropic material disregarding the transverse deformation will lead to a large error in the determination of the stress field.Institute of Metallurgy, Dnepropetrovsk.

Elastoplastic torsion of a cylindrical rod for finite deformations

A solution of the problem of the torsion of a cylindrical rod was obtained in /1/ for a general, isotropic, incompressible elastic material. The present paper gives an analytical solution of the elastoplastic torsion problem for finite deformations, written in terms of quadratures of elliptic functions. The non-linear kinematics of elastoplastic deformation is introduced into the defining equations with the help of a multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient into elastic and plastic components /2, 3/. The elastic deformation and rate of plastic deformation are related to the state of stress of the body, in accordance with the defining Mooney-Rivlin equations /4/ and the law of flow for finite deformations associated with the Tresca yield condition /5/. A non-linear first-order partial differential equation and the initial data at the elastoplastic boundary are obtained in order to determine the angle of rotation within the plastic zone of the basis formed from the eigenvectors of the stress tensor, relative to the radial direction. The integration of the resulting equation is reduced to determining the general integral of the Ricatti equation with right-hand side determined from the angular velocity of flow of the material within the plastic zone. It is shown that neglecting the finiteness of the deformation leads to too high an estimate of the rigidity of the rod.     

Fundamentals of the theory of non-fabric glass-reinforced plastics

Starting from the known mechanical properties of the components (glass reinforcement and resin) the stress-strain relations for an anisotropic viscoelastic material (glass-reinforced plastic) are determined. Using Volterra's principle [2] of replacing the elastic constants in the solution of the problem of the theory of elasticity [5] by integral operators, relations for the given material are obtained and found to be in fairly good agreement with the experimental data. In a separate study the high-temperature behavior of GRP is investigated by calculating the integral operators, which are functions of the viscous properties of the resin and the temperature.Mekhanika polimerov, Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 151–158, 1965     

A Method to Estimate the Inelastic Response in Notched Structures of Anisotropic Materials with Elastic ‐ Perfectly Plastic Behavior

The fatigue strength of engineering structures is often limited by notches which arise from constructive features or manufacturing defects. The constitutive behavior in notch regions is then characterized by small plastic zones which are contained in an elastic region. To avoid costly plastic calculations, approximate methods have been developed to estimate the inelastic stress‐strain response at the notch tip. One of the first and best known approximate models is that of Neuber which, over the last 40 years, has received considerable attention particularly in connection with fatigue life prediction. Numerous studies have been conducted to the verification and the generalization of the Neuber approach which respect to multiaxiality, cyclic loading and creep conditions. Recently an extension of the Neuber method to anisotropic materials has been proposed in [1] and applied to directionally solidified and single crystal Nickel based superalloys as they are used in high temperature material applications. In this short notice we modify the approach in [1] for the special case of an elastic ‐ perfectly plastic anisotropic material.     

The propagation of shock waves in anisotropic materials

The propagation of shock waves in anisotropic materials (aluminium alloys), the state of which obeys a non-linear relation, which generalizes Grüneisen's equation for isotropic materials, is investigated. The concept of total generalized pressure and the pressure corresponding to the thermodynamic response is proposed. A modification of the anisotropic Hill criterion in the case of non-associated plastic flow, for which the yield surface is independent of the generalized hydrostatic stress, is considered.     

Elastoplastic stability of glass-reinforced plastic plates with a central metal layer

The problem of the stability of a three-layer plate with a central plastic layer of metal sandwiched between elastic glass-reinforced plastic outer layers is considered. The presence of a metal layer restrains the development of creep strains in the glass-reinforced plastic and makes it possible to neglect the viscous strain components. The general equations of the problem are obtained, and the approximate Il'yushin formulation [1] is considered. An example is presented for a rectangular plate in pure shear. It is shown that the elastic anisotropic layers play the part of a load-relieving system for the central plastic layer [3], which results in an increase in the over-all critical load for the layered plate.Kalinin Polytechnic Institute.

Simulation of micro-cutting considering finite deformation crystal plasticity

Micro-machining processes on metalic microstructures are influenced by the crystal structure, i. e. the grain orientation. Furthermore, the chip formation underlies large deformations. To perform finite element simulations of micro-cutting processes, a large deformation material model is necessary in order to model the hyperelastic and finite plastic material behaviour. In the case of cp-titanium material with hcp-crystal structure the anisotropic behaviour must be considered by an appropriate set of slip planes and slip directions. In the present work the impact of the grain orientation on the plastic deformation is demonstrated by means of finite element simulations of a finite deformation single slip crystal plasticity model.

The problem of the stability of quasilinear flows with respect to perturbations of the hardening function

A formulation of the linearized boundary-value problem of the stability of a deformation process with respect to small perturbations of the hardening function (of the scalar constitutive relation of the material) is presented. The characteristic vector relations of the medium are assumed to be linear. The occurrence of rigid zones in the domain of the solid and the change in their boundaries in the perturbed motion are taken into account. A perfect rigid plastic deformation and the flow of a Newtonian fluid are considered explicitly as the basic flow. In the latter case, the equation of the asymptotic boundary of the rigid zone, which appears when there is a small variation in the yield stress and a transition to a viscoplastic material, is derived.

A Formulation of Additive Finite Anisotropic Thermo-Plasticity in Logarithmic Lagrangean Strain-Entropy Space

A phenomenological model of rate-independent thermo-plasticity at finite strains is discussed. The formulation is based on an additive decomposition of the strain measure into an elastic and plastic part as proposed by Green and Naghdi. A constitutive model in the logarithmic Lagrangean strain-entropy space is developed capable of modelling isotropic elastic and anisotropic plastic material behaviour. The staggered solution scheme for coupled thermo-mechanical problems employs an isentropic phase for the deformation and an iso-geometrical phase for the thermal field.

Effective Flow Potentials for Anisotropic Polycrystals

In this paper a micromechanically based flow potential for anisotropic fcc polycrystals is derived that takes into account the crystallite orientation distribution function (codf) in terms of tensorial texture coefficients. The effective flow potential is based on a representation theorem for anisotropic scalar functions depending on a 2nd-order tensor. A priori unknown functions in the representation are determined by defining and solving explicitly a minimization problem over SO(3). Important analytical properties of the coefficient matrix of the minimization problem are discussed. (© 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
