斜波压缩下锡的相变和层裂行为

获取不同热力学路径下锡的动态响应实验数据,是深入研究其相变和损伤物理过程的基础.利用小型磁驱装置CQ-4完成了金属锡的斜波加载实验,获取了锡含有相变和层裂损伤物理信息的实验数据.实验结果显示,在加载段锡依次经历了弹塑性转变和β-γ相变两种物理过程,屈服强度约0.194 GPa,相变压力随着锡厚度的增加从7.54 GPa减小到7.14 GPa.在卸载段出现了明显的层裂损伤,层裂强度约1.1 GPa,与相同加载压力下冲击实验结果有巨大差异,层裂片厚度约0.38 mm.结合由锡的多相Helmholtz自由能计算的多相状态方程、Hayes相变动力学方程和损伤度理论,对斜波压缩实验过程进行一维流体动力学数值模拟,计算结果可以很好描述锡的弹塑性转变、相变和层裂三个物理过程.     

基于各向异性损伤本构模型的砌体结构抗震分析

进一步完善了应力张量的线性变换方法,并将其应用于砌体材料本构模型的开发。在整体式有限元模型中,因不区分砌块和砂浆而将其视为匀质的连续材料,难以用受拉和受压两个损伤变量准确描述灰缝的II型滑移破坏。为解决这一问题,提出应再引入一个针对II型滑移破坏的损伤变量。基于以上研究工作,对砌体结构的振动台试验进行了模拟。模拟结果进一步验证了本文提出的弹塑性损伤本构模型的有效性,以及在进行结构非线性分析方面的优越性。由于本文提出的本构模型能够较为真实地描述砌体墙的破坏模式,因此使用该模型进行结构非线性分析,除了能够获取结构的位移和应力等反应外,还能较为准确地实时提供结构中的损伤分布状态信息,找出结构的薄弱部位,并据此合理地设计结构或进行相应的结构修复。     

A study on the damage evaluation of weld heat affected zone

From the micro- and macroscopic points of view, the damage evolution of weld-simulated heat affected zone (HAZ) is studied. In the framework of continuum damage mechanics (CDM), the ductile and low cycle fatigue (LCF) damage evolution laws of HAZ have been examined. Two alternative laws of damage are proposed in this paper, which may meet the need for describing damage evolution of ductile rupture and LCF fracture, respectively.     

A micromechanics based damage model for composite materials

The predictive capacity of ductile fracture models when applied to composite and multiphase materials is related to the accuracy of the estimated stress/strain level in the second phases or reinforcements, which defines the condition for damage nucleation. Second phase particles contribute to the overall hardening of the composite before void nucleation, as well as to its softening after their fracture or decohesion. If the volume fraction of reinforcement is larger than a couple of percents, this softening can significantly affect the resistance to plastic localization and cannot be neglected. In order to explicitly account for the effect of second phase particles on the ductile fracture process, this study integrates a damage model based on the Gologanu–Leblond–Devaux constitutive behavior with a mean-field homogenization scheme. Even though the model is more general, the present study focuses on elastic particles dispersed in an elasto-plastic matrix. After assessing the mean-field homogenization scheme through comparison with two-dimensional axisymmetric finite element calculations, an extensive parametric study is performed using the integrated homogenization-damage model. The predictions of the integrated homogenization-damage model are also compared with experimental results on cast aluminum alloys, in terms of both the fracture strain and overall stress–strain curves. The study demonstrates the complex couplings among the load transfer to second phase particles, their resistance to fracture, the void nucleation mode, and the overall ductility.     

Revised damage evolution equation for high cycle fatigue life prediction of aluminum alloy LC4 under uniaxial loading

The fatigue life prediction for components is a difficult task since many factors can affect the final fatigue life. Based on the damage evolution equation of Lemaitre and Desmorat, a revised two-scale damage evolution equation for high cycle fatigue is presented according to the experimental data, in which factors such as the stress amplitude and mean stress are taken into account. Then, a method is proposed to obtain the material parameters of the revised equation from the present fatigue experimental data. Finally, with the utilization of the ANSYS parametric design language (APDL) on the ANSYS platform, the coupling effect between the fatigue damage of materials and the stress distribution in structures is taken into account, and the fatigue life of specimens is predicted. The outcome shows that the numerical prediction is in accord with the experimental results, indicating that the revised two-scale damage evolution model can be well applied for the high cycle fatigue life prediction under uniaxial loading.     

EVOLUTION OF VOIDS IN DUCTILE POROUS MATERIALS AT HIGH STRAIN RATE

In the present work,a dynamic damage model in ductile materials underthe application of dynamic general stresses loading is presented.The evolution equationof ductile voids has the closed form,in which work-hardening,the change of surfaceenergy of voids,rate-dependent,inertial effects are taken into account.Theexpressions of critical stresses for the growth and compaction of voids are directlyobtained from the evolution equations of voids.From the expressions,the resultobtained by Carroll and Holt,as a special example,is given.Numerical analysis ofthe model indicates that the growth of voids is sensitive to the strain rates.The voidsgrow quickly as the increase of strain rates.It is also shown that the influence of theinertial effects on the void growth is great at high loading rates.It appears to resist thegrowth of voids.In addition,a dynamic collapse model of ductile voids is alsoproposed,which can be applied to study the problems of compaction in powder andother materials.     

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.

Progressive failure analysis of tow-placed, variable-stiffness composite panels

The past developments on tow-placement technology led to the production of machines capable of controlling fibre tows individually and placing them onto the surface of a laminate with curvilinear topology. Due to the variation of properties along their surface, such structures are termed variable-stiffness composite panels.In previous experimental research tow-steered panels have shown increased buckling load capacity as compared with traditional straight-fibre laminates. Also, numerical analyses by the authors showed that first-ply failure occurs at a significant higher load level. The focus of this paper is to extend those analyses into the postbuckling progressive damage behaviour and final structural failure due to accumulation of fibre and matrix damage. A user-developed continuum damage model implemented in the finite element code ABAQUS^® is employed in the simulation of damage initiation and material stiffness degradation.In order to correctly predict the buckling loads of tow-steered panels under compression, it is of crucial importance to take into account the residual thermal stresses resulting from the curing process. Final failure of tow-steered panels in postbuckling is predicted to within 10% difference of the experimental results. Curvilinear-fibre panels have up to 56% higher strength than straight-fibre laminates and damage initiation is also remarkably postponed. Tow-steered designs also show more tolerance to central holes than traditional laminates.

超弹性镍钛形状记忆合金因其良好的力学性能以及独特的超弹性和形状记忆效应已广泛应用于土木工程、航空航天和生物医疗等多个领域,在实际服役环境中超弹性镍钛合金元件不可避免地会承受不同应力水平的循环载荷作用,亟待建立描述相变棘轮行为(即峰值应变和谷值应变随着正相变和逆相变循环的进行不断累积)的循环本构模型.为此,基于已有的超弹性镍钛形状记忆合金在不同峰值应力下的单轴相变棘轮行为实验研究结果,在广义黏塑性框架下,对Graesser等提出的通过背应力非线性演化方程反映超弹性镍钛形状记忆合金超弹性行为的一维宏观唯像本构模型进行了拓展,考虑了正相变和逆相变过程中特征变量的差异及其随循环的演化,以非弹性应变的累积量为内变量引入了正相变开始应力、逆相变开始应力、相变应变和残余应变的演化方程,同时通过峰值应力与正相变完成应力的比值来确定演化方程中的相关系数,建立了描述超弹性镍钛合金单轴相变棘轮行为的本构模型.将模拟结果与对应的实验结果进行对比发现,建立的宏观唯像本构模型能够合理地描述超弹性镍钛形状记忆合金的单轴相变棘轮行为及其峰值应力依赖性,模型的预测结果和实验结果吻合得很好.     

Micromechanical modelling of the effect of plastic deformation on the mechanical behaviour in pseudoelastic shape memory alloys

Except for the recoverable strain induced by phase transformation, NiTi alloys are very ductile even in the martensite phase. The purpose of the present paper is to study the influence of permanent deformation, which results from plastic deformation of martensite, on the mechanical behaviour of pseudoelastic NiTi alloys. Based on phenomenological theory of martensitic transformation and crystal plasticity, a new three dimensional micromechanical model is proposed by coupling both the slip and twinning deformation mechanisms. The present model is implemented as User MATerial subroutine (UMAT) into ABAQUS/Standard to study the influences of plastic deformation on the stress and strain fields, and on the evolution of martensite transformation. Results show that with the increasing of plastic deformation the residual strain increases and the phase transformation stress–strain curves from the martensite to austenite become steeper and less obvious. Both characteristics, stabilisation of martensite and impedance of the reverse transformation, due to plastic deformation are captured.     

Cohesive zone laws for fatigue crack growth: Numerical field projection of the micromechanical damage process in an elasto-plastic medium

Cohesive zone failure models are widely used to simulate fatigue crack propagation under cyclic loading, but the model parameters are phenomenological and are not closely tied to the underlying micromechanics of the problem. In this paper, we will inversely extract the cohesive zone laws for fatigue crack growth in an elasto-plastic ductile solid using a field projection method (FPM), which projects the equivalent tractions and separations at the cohesive crack-tip from field information outside the process zone. In our small-scale yielding model, a single row of discrete voids is deployed directly ahead of a crack in an elasto-plastic medium subjected to cyclic mode I K-field loading. Damage accumulation under cyclic loading is captured by the growth of voids within the micro-voiding zone ahead of the crack, while the evolution of the cohesive zone law representing the micro-voiding zone is inversely extracted via the FPM. We show that the field-projected cohesive zone law captures the essential micromechanisms of fatigue crack growth in the ductile medium: from loading and unloading hysteresis caused by void growth and plastic hardening, to the softening damage locus associated with crack propagation via a void by void growth mechanism. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the FPM in obtaining a micromechanics-based cohesive zone law in-place of phenomenological models, which opens the way for a unified treatment of fatigue crack problems.

Plastic strip model of cracked weld joint with residual stresses

The effect of residual stresses on the fracture behavior of a cracked weld joint is studied by making use of the continuous dislocation formulation. Considered are the plastic zone length of the strip model zone and the opening displacement of a crack that is normal to both weld line and base metal boundary; they depend on the character of the yield stresses for the base metal (BM), weld material (WM), and heat affected zone (HAZ). The crack driving force is found to increase with the tensile residual stress while crack initiation and growth are suppressed if the residual stress is compressive. Moreover, the plastic zone and crack opening displacement are found to decrease linearly with the HAZ yield strength as the HAZ width is increased for HAZ yield strength greater than that of BM.     

Damage evolution of ductile material under impact loading

Nucleation, growth and coalescence of micro-voids result in the fracture of materials. Most mathematical models neglect nucleation and introduce initial damage, assuming it as a material constant. However, the original damage, which is formed during material working, is a material constant. The initial damage is a model parameter and depends on the load. Apparently, the predictability of such a model is poor.This paper made comparison and analysis of the four classical void growth models and showed their similarities. At the beginning of damage evolution, all the models follow a linear relationship in the form , where c is the size of micro voids and k is a parameter which relates the material and loading condition. With the concept of statistical micro-damage and the assumption of uniform void radius for new voids, a damage evolution equation was deduced based on the above void growth model. With this equation the effects of nucleation and growth at the beginning of the damage stage on the whole process of damage evolution can be calculated. The transition time from the nucleation dominant phase to the growth dominant phase can be determined. When the transition time is applied to the damage failure model of ductile material proposed by Johnson, the initial damage (f₀), a model parameter in the original model, can also be determined. The results of the derived damage evolution equation agree well with the previous research results.     

Damage evolution in particulate composite materials

Damage evolution in heterogeneous solids is modeled using transformation field analysis and imperfect interface model. Stress changes caused by local debonding are simulated by residual stresses generated by equivalent transformation strains or eigenstrains. Decohesion and both overall and local stress and strain rates are derived from thermodynamics of irreversible processes, which provide an excellent framework for the development of constitutive equations. Both tangent and unloading secant stiffness tensors are found along any prescribed mechanical loading path. Numerical simulation of debonding evolution in glass/elastomer composites is compared with experimental data and provides good agreement between the model and experiments.     

A cohesive zone model for fatigue crack growth allowing for crack retardation

A damage-based cohesive model is developed for simulating crack growth due to fatigue loading. The cohesive model follows a linear damage-dependent traction–separation relation coupled with a damage evolution equation. The rate of damage evolution is characterized by three material parameters corresponding to common features of fatigue behavior captured by the model, namely, damage accumulation, crack retardation and stress threshold. Good agreement is obtained between finite element solutions using the model and fatigue test results for an aluminum alloy under different load ratios and for the overload effect on ductile 316 L steel.
