含冷却孔镍基合金次级取向效应的应变梯度晶体塑性有限元研究

单晶镍基合金具有优异的耐高温、高强、高韧等性能, 这些力学性能受制造过程引入的次级取向和冷却孔的影响. 已有研究大多关注单孔薄板的变形机理和力学性能, 而工程中应用的往往是多孔薄板, 当前亟需阐明多孔的塑性滑移带变形机理、次级取向效应以及冷却孔引起的应变梯度效应. 文章采用基于位错机制的非局部晶体塑性本构模型对含冷却孔镍基单晶薄板的单拉变形进行了数值模拟. 此模型基于塑性滑移梯度与几何必需位错的关系引入了位错流动项, 因此可有效刻画非均匀变形过程中的应变梯度效应. 为了全面揭示含孔镍基薄板的次级取向效应, 系统研究了[100]和[110]取向(两种次级取向)下镍基薄板的单拉变形行为, 并重点探究了在两种次级取向下冷却孔数量对薄板塑性行为的影响. 此外, 还分析了镍基合金板变形过程中各个滑移系上分切应力变化、主导滑移系开动以及几何必需位错密度的演化过程, 并讨论了塑性滑移量及其分布特征对不同次级取向镍基合金板强度的影响. 研究表明, 单孔和多孔的[110]薄板抗拉强度均低于[100]薄板, 多孔薄板的塑性变形过程比单孔薄板更为复杂且受次级取向影响更大, 并且发生滑移梯度位置主要位于冷却孔附近以及塑性滑移带区域. 研究结果可为工程中镍基合金的设计和服役提供理论指导.

Material model describing the orientation dependent creep behavior of single crystals based on dislocation densities of slip systems

A material model is proposed which describes single crystal creep behavior by evolution equations for dislocation densities on individual slip systems. An interaction matrix determines the influence from one glide system to the other. Assuming a face centered cubic crystal, allowing deformation on octahedral glide planes and cube glide planes with a Burgers vector of the type a/2〈110〉, nine independent parameters of the interaction matrix can be distinguished. A parameter check of the nine independent parameters has been carried out, showing the influence of parameters on specific orientations of the load axis. If one assumes dislocation interaction of a glide system only with itself a smooth behavior is predicted with a maximum creep rate for [001] orientation, followed by [011] and [111]. If a strong interaction is assumed, the orientation dependent creep behavior is not at all smooth, instead it shows a sharp drop in creep rates mainly in symmetric positions of the standard orientation triangle. The orientations with highest creep rates are in this case those which favor single glide. Highly symmetric orientations, such as [001], [011] and [111] have strongly decreased stationary creep rates.     

Crystal plasticity analysis of dislocation emission from micro voids

Slip deformation in the vicinity of a micro void in metal crystals is analyzed by a crystal plasticity technique, and the geometrically necessary dislocations, which accompany the gradient of plastic shear strain on slip systems, are evaluated. Aggregates of dislocation segments on pairs of slip systems that have the same slip directions but different slip planes exhibit a rhombus-shaped structure, and the structure is shown to be equivalent to prismatic dislocation loops of the interstitial type. Material transport and growth of voids are discussed in terms of GN dislocations.     

A dislocation density based crystal plasticity finite element model: Application to a two-phase polycrystalline HCP/BCC composites

We present a multiscale model for anisotropic, elasto-plastic, rate- and temperature-sensitive deformation of polycrystalline aggregates to large plastic strains. The model accounts for a dislocation-based hardening law for multiple slip modes and links a single-crystal to a polycrystalline response using a crystal plasticity finite element based homogenization. It is capable of predicting local stress and strain fields based on evolving microstructure including the explicit evolution of dislocation density and crystallographic grain reorientation. We apply the model to simulate monotonic mechanical response of a hexagonal close-packed metal, zirconium (Zr), and a body-centered cubic metal, niobium (Nb), and study the texture evolution and deformation mechanisms in a two-phase Zr/Nb layered composite under severe plastic deformation. The model predicts well the texture in both co-deforming phases to very large plastic strains. In addition, it offers insights into the active slip systems underlying texture evolution, indicating that the observed textures develop by a combination of prismatic, pyramidal, and anomalous basal slip in Zr and primarily {110}〈111〉 slip and secondly {112}〈111〉 slip in Nb.     

Heterogeneous deformation in ductile FCC single crystals in biaxial stretching: the influence of slip system interactions

The heterogeneity of deformation in ductile FCC single crystals is investigated by both numerical simulations and an analytic approach. The constitutive behaviour is based on a generalized storage recovery model and takes into account the interactions between slip systems previously obtained by dislocation dynamics simulations. In biaxial stretching, the simulations show the activation of a large number of slip systems and their localization in mutually excluding zones. As a result, a microstructure of lamellar type is formed in the early stages of the deformation. These numerical results are complemented by a linear stability analysis showing that the heterogeneous deformation pattern is triggered by instability modes of the single crystal. Furthermore, the interaction matrix is playing a key role as the partition is found to originate from slip system interactions. The partition is driven by the strongest interaction, which is in most cases the collinear interaction. A comparison with an experimental study in simple shear yields useful information about how to check the respective strength of some interactions. The collinear interaction is not involved in that case, but its effect can be verified by reproducing the experiment on a crystal with a different orientation.

A dislocation density-based single crystal constitutive equation

Single crystal constitutive equations based on dislocation density (SCCE-D) were developed from Orowan’s strengthening equation and simple geometric relationships of the operating slip systems. The flow resistance on a slip plane was computed using the Burger’s vector, line direction, and density of the dislocations on all other slip planes, with no adjustable parameters. That is, the latent/self-hardening matrix was determined by the crystallography of the slip systems alone. The multiplication of dislocations on each slip system incorporated standard 3-parameter dislocation density evolution equations applied to each slip system independently; this is the only phenomenological aspect of the SCCE-D model. In contrast, the most widely used single crystal constitutive equations for texture analysis (SCCE-T) feature 4 or more adjustable parameters that are usually back-fit from a polycrystal flow curve. In order to compare the accuracy of the two approaches to reproduce single crystal behavior, tensile tests of single crystals oriented for single slip were simulated using crystal plasticity finite element modeling. Best-fit parameters (3 for SCCE-D, 4 for SCCE-T) were determined using either multiple or single slip stress–strain curves for copper and iron from the literature. Both approaches reproduced the data used for fitting accurately. Tensile tests of copper and iron single crystals oriented to favor the remaining combinations of slip systems were then simulated using each model (i.e. multiple slip cases for equations fit to single slip, and vice versa). In spite of fewer fit parameters, the SCCE-D predicted the flow stresses with a standard deviation of 14 MPa, less than one half that for the SCCE-T conventional equations: 31 MPa. Polycrystalline texture simulations were conducted to compare predictions of the two models. The predicted polycrystal flow curves differed considerably, but the differences in texture evolution were insensitive to the type of constitutive equations. The SCCE-D method provides an improved representation of single-crystal plastic response with fewer adjustable parameters, better accuracy, and better predictivity than the constitutive equations most widely used for texture analysis (SCCE-T).
