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.      

粘塑性损伤模型模拟准超塑性单轴拉伸行为

发展了Chaboche粘塑性本构模型的大变形隐式算法，用损伤(DM)和无损伤(NDM)模型模拟准超塑性单轴拉伸。发现变形过程可分为三个阶段：均匀变形、颈缩发展、断裂破坏阶段。DM可准确模拟前两个阶段变形，NDM只能较好地模拟均匀变形阶段，表明DM可以较精确地描述稳定发展的动态过程。由于有限元方法只能描述连续介质，因此对于断裂破坏阶段，NDM模拟载荷大于试验结果，DM的载荷小于试验结果，这是由高应变速率敏感性造成。DM能够描述试验中出现地多处颈缩现象，局部应变速率分布随时间演化反映了颈缩发展程度。严重颈缩部位的距离代表着超塑性变形能力，距离越大，抗颈缩能力越好。

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).

A large deformation framework for compressible viscoelastic materials: Constitutive equations and finite element implementation

For modeling the constitutive properties of viscoelastic solids in the context of small deformations, the so-called three-parameter solid is often used. The differential equation governing the model response may be derived in a thermodynamically consistent way considering linear spring-dashpot elements. The main problem in generalizing constitutive models from small to finite deformations is to extend the theory in a thermodynamically consistent way, so that the second law of thermodynamics remains satisfied in every admissible process. This paper concerns with the formulation and constitutive equations of finite strain viscoelastic material using multiplicative decomposition in a thermodynamically consistent manner. Based on the proposed constitutive equations, a finite element (FE) procedure is developed and implemented in an FE code. Subsequently, the code is used to predict the response of elastomer bushings. The finite element analysis predicts displacements and rotations at the relaxed state reasonably well. The response to coupled radial and torsional deformations is also simulated.     

A new constitutive equation for solid propellant with the effects of aging and viscoelastic Poisson’s ratio

A new constitutive equation for solid propellant with the effects of aging and viscoelastic Poisson’s ratio is proposed. Effects of thermo-oxidative aging and viscoelastic Poisson’s ratio are considered in this comprehensive constitutive equation with two sets of reduced time system coping with the time and temperature dependence. In order to simulate the single and combined effects of aging and viscoelastic Poisson’s ratio, constitutive equation is rewritten into an incremental form and implemented in the user subroutine UMAT at the platform of finite element code ABAQUS. Detailed procedure for acquiring the parameters in constitutive equation is introduced and conducted for the subsequent applied analysis. Two typical loading cases during the service life of solid rocket motor and four sets of combined constitutive models are simulated. Von Mises strain and stress distribution and their changes versus time are utilized as the main analysis index. The results show that the effects of aging and viscoelastic Poisson’s ratio or their combinations will improve or decrease the level and change the distribution of Von Mises strain and stress in varying degrees.     

Characterization of macroscopic tensile strength of polycrystalline metals with two-scale finite element analysis

The objective of this contribution is to develop an elastic-plastic-damage constitutive model for crystal grain and to incorporate it with two-scale finite element analyses based on mathematical homogenization method, in order to characterize the macroscopic tensile strength of polycrystalline metals. More specifically, the constitutive model for single crystal is obtained by combining hyperelasticity, a rate-independent single crystal plasticity and a continuum damage model. The evolution equations, stress update algorithm and consistent tangent are derived within the framework of standard elastoplasticity at finite strain. By employing two-scale finite element analysis, the ductile behaviour of polycrystalline metals and corresponding tensile strength are evaluated. The importance of finite element formulation is examined by comparing performance of several finite elements and their convergence behaviour is assessed with mesh refinement. Finally, the grain size effect on yield and tensile strength is analysed in order to illustrate the versatility of the proposed two-scale model.     

A new integration algorithm for finite deformation of thermo-elasto-viscoplastic single crystals

An algorithm for integrating the constitutive equations in thermal framework is presented, in which the plastic deformation gradient is chosen as the integration variable. Compared with the classic algorithm, a key feature of this new approach is that it can describe the finite deformation of crystals under thermal conditions. The obtained plastic deformation gradient contains not only plastic defor- mation but also thermal effects. The governing equation for the plastic deformation gradient is obtained based on ther- mal multiplicative decomposition of the total deformation gradient. An implicit method is used to integrate this evo- lution equation to ensure stability. Single crystal 1 100 aluminum is investigated to demonstrate practical applications of the model. The effects of anisotropic properties, time step, strain rate and temperature are calculated using this integration model.

Elastic/crystalline viscoplastic finite element analyses of single- and poly-crystal sheet deformations and their experimental verification

The elastic/crystalline viscoplastic constitutive equation, based on a newly proposed hardening-softening evolution equation, is introduced into the dynamic-explicit finite element code “Itas-Dynamic.” In the softening evolution equation, the effective distance and the angle between each slip system of a crystal are introduced to elucidate the interaction between the slip systems, which causes a decrease of dislocation density. The polycrystal sheet is modeled by Voronoi polygons, which correspond to the crystal grains; and by the selected orientations, which can relate to the texture, they are assigned to the integration points of the finite elements. We propose a direct crystal orientation assignment method, which means that each integration point of finite element has an assigned orientation, and its orientation can be rotated independently. Therefore, this inhomogeneous polycrystal model can consider the plastic induced texture development and subsequent anisotropy evolution. The parameters of the constitutive equation are identified by uni-axial tension tests carried out on single crystal sheets. Numerical results obtained for sheet tensions are compared with experimental ones to confirm the validity of our finite element code. Further, we investigate the following subjects: (1) how the initial orientation of single crystal affects slip band formation and strain localization; (2) how the grain size and particular orientations of the grain affect the strain localization in case of a polycrystal sheet. It is confirmed that the orientation of a single crystal can be related to the primary slip system and the deformation induced activation of that system, which in turn can be related to the slip band formation of the single crystal sheet. Further, in case of a polycrystal sheet, the larger the grain size, the more the strain localizes at a specific crystal, which has the particular orientation. It is confirmed through comparisons with experiments that our finite element code can predict the localization of strain in sheets and consequently can estimate the formability of sheet metals.     

Finite element simulation of PSB macroband nucleation and propagation in single crystal nickel cycled at low plastic strain amplitudes

Substructure models for vein matrix and persistent slip band (PSB) structures are extracted from a uniaxial mixtures model that was developed to simulate cyclic loading experiments on nickel single crystals oriented for single slip. Reverse magnetostriction is included as well. These substructure models are implanted in a single crystal plasticity framework with fully anisotropic elasticity. The resulting constitutive models are incorporated in finite element models to simulate the process of PSB macroband formation and propagation. Perturbation elements (PEs), elements assigned with PSB properties, are used as the loci for PSB macroband nucleation. Transition of elements with vein matrix properties to elements with PSB properties is triggered at integration points by a shear stress criterion applied on slip systems. The resulting finite element models successfully demonstrate the process of PSB formation and propagation, and plastic strain amplitude partitioning between vein matrix and PSB macrobands. The effect of model boundary constraints, strain increment dependence, mesh sensitivity, PE distribution, specimen axis misorientation, and PSB volume fraction generated is examined.
