通过建立样品厚度为飞片厚度2倍的铝板撞击有限元模型,采用Johnson-Cook本构方程研究了纯铝材料中不同深度空洞的演化过程.研究结果表明:微空洞从杂质周围形核并呈近球形长大;由于靶板不同深度拉伸应力的峰值以及加载持续时间不同,空洞的长大速率与其在靶板的位置有关;由于冲击过程中没有形成三向拉应力,材料表面的空洞长大速度为零;靶板中间层位置首先出现拉伸应力,最先开始长大,靶板中间层位置的三向拉应力最大且作用时间较长,空洞长大速度最快;从靶板中间往两表面的方向,空洞依次开始长大,长大速度逐渐减小;模拟结果与实验观察结果相符,为研究动态冲击下空洞的演化提供参考.

多轴载荷作用下马氏体耐热钢中微孔洞演化行为的模拟研究

微孔洞演化包括孔洞成核、生长和聚合三个阶段,是影响金属材料韧性断裂的重要因素.为了分析P91马氏体耐热钢中的塑性滑移对微观孔洞扩展的影响,论文提出了一种基于晶体塑性有限元的微观力学计算模型,量化了应力三轴度、洛德参数和晶体取向对微孔洞演化行为的影响.结果表明,在相对较高应力三轴度条件下,随着应力三轴度的增大,含孔洞马氏体块的等效应力-应变响应呈现出快速软化的特征,同时孔洞体积分数随着等效应变的增加而快速增加.对于给定的应力三轴度,胞元的聚合应变在[111]取向时最小,在[110]取向时最大.孔洞聚合开始时,低应力三轴度下孔洞形状趋向于椭球状,而较高应力三轴度时孔洞横向略鼓.在一定的应力三轴度和洛德参数范围内,在孔洞聚合和孔洞坍塌两种胞元失效状态之间存在着一个条带状过渡状态,在[100]晶体取向时,当洛德参数L=-1时条带最宽.论文揭示了P91马氏体耐热钢中微孔洞演化的基本机制,分析了晶体取向、应力三轴度和洛德参数对微孔洞演化的影响.这些发现为P91马氏体耐热钢的韧性损伤模型的进一步发展提供了微观理论基础.

考虑两种晶界的各向异性双晶和三晶体晶界附近弹塑性应力场分析

采用率相关的晶体滑移有限元程序对具有不同晶体取向的双晶体晶界附近及三晶体三晶粒交汇处的弹塑性应力场进行了计算,考虑了几何晶界和物理晶界的影响.计算结果表明:双晶体及三晶体考虑几何晶界和物理晶界时,这两种晶界具有相同的应力分布趋势,只是物理晶界比几何晶界的应力集中程度小,双晶体晶界附近有较大的应力梯度,存在应力集中现象.三晶体三晶粒交汇处可能是应力集中之地也可能不造成应力集中,这主要取决于晶粒晶体取向及加载方向.由此可见,要准确理解金属材料的断裂过程,还需要从细观的角度对晶界的力学响应进行细致和深入的研究.     

晶体取向对单晶体断裂特征影响的模拟分析

结合Ni基单晶合金制三种不同晶体取向的紧凑拉伸试样试验,本文利用考虑有限变形和品格转动效应的晶体滑移有限元程序对单晶体三维断裂特征进行了模拟计算分析,详细考察了裂纹尖端三维应力场特征和断裂特征,结果表明:晶体取向对裂纹尖端应力场有较大影响,但应力沿试样厚度方向明显分成两个部分,在试样心部,应力沿厚度方向变化不大,在试样外表面则明显变化。裂纹尖端张开位移(CTDD)沿厚度方向类似分成两个部分。垂直于滑移面的应力分量致单晶体的准解理断裂,即裂纹的起裂和扩展途径均与该应力分量有关。     

磁电弹复合材料和刚性导电导磁圆柱压头的二维微动接触分析

本文求解平面应变状态下磁电弹复合材料半平面和刚性导电导磁圆柱压头的二维微动接触问题。假设压头具有良好的导电导磁性,且表面电势和磁势是常数。微动接触依赖载荷的加载历史,所以首先求解单独的法向加载问题,然后在法向加载问题的基础上求解循环变化的切向加载问题。整个接触区可以分为内部的中心粘着区和两个外部的滑移区,其中滑移区满足Coulomb摩擦法则。利用Fourier积分变换,磁电弹半平面的微动接触问题将简化为耦合的Cauchy奇异积分方程组,然后数值离散为线性代数方程组,利用迭代法求解未知的粘着/滑移区尺寸、电荷分布、磁感应强度、法向接触压力和切向接触力。数值算例给出了摩擦系数、总电荷和总磁感应强度对各加载阶段的表面接触应力、电位移和磁感应强度的影响。     

The influence of crystallographic orientation on the deformation behaviour of single crystals containing microvoids

This study deals with the influence of microvoids on the deformation and damage behaviour of ductile materials. Fully three dimensional simulations were performed for different void configurations. The crystallographic orientation of the void surrounding matrix was varied to accurately investigate its impact on void growth. The results of the simulations have shown that the void growth and deformation behaviour on a microscopic scale significantly depend on the crystallographic orientation of an anisotropic matrix material.     

Lattice orientation effects on void growth and coalescence in fcc single crystals

Void growth and coalescence in fcc single crystals were studied using crystal plasticity under uniaxial and biaxial loading conditions and various orientations of the crystalline lattice. A 2D plane strain unit cell with one and two cylindrical voids was employed using three-dimensional 12 potentially active slip systems. The results were compared to five representative orientations of the tensile axis on the stereographic triangle. For uniaxial tension conditions, the void volume fraction increase under the applied load is strongly dependent on the crystallographic orientation with respect to the tensile axis. For some orientations of the tensile axis, such as [1 0 0] or [1 1 0], the voids exhibited a growth rate twice as fast compared with other orientations ([1 0 0], [2 1 1]). Void growth and coalescence simulations under uniaxial loading indicated that during deformation along some orientations with asymmetry of the slip systems, the voids experienced rotation and shape distortion, due mainly to lattice reorientation. Coalescence effects are shown to diminish the influence of lattice orientation on the void volume fraction increase, but noteworthy differences are still present. Under biaxial loading conditions, practically all differences in the void volume fraction for different orientations of the tensile axes during void growth vanish. These results lead to the conclusion that at microstructural length scales in regions under intense biaxiality/triaxiality conditions, such as crack tip or notched regions, the plastic anisotropy due to the initial lattice orientation has only a minor role in influencing the void growth rate. In such situations, void growth and coalescence are mainly determined by the stress triaxiality, the magnitude of accumulated strain, and the spatial localization of such plastic strains.     

Size effects on void growth in single crystals with distributed voids

The effect of void size on void growth in single crystals with uniformly distributed cylindrical voids is studied numerically using a finite deformation strain gradient crystal plasticity theory with an intrinsic length parameter. A plane strain cell model is analyzed for a single crystal with three in-plane slip systems. It is observed that small voids allow much larger overall stress levels than larger voids for all the stress triaxialities considered. The amount of void growth is found to be suppressed for smaller voids at low stress triaxialities. Significant differences are observed in the distribution of slips and on the shape of the deformed voids for different void sizes. Furthermore, the orientation of the crystalline lattice is found to have a pronounced effect on the results, especially for the smaller void sizes.     

Effects of void band orientation and crystallographic anisotropy on void growth and coalescence

The effects of void band orientation and crystallographic anisotropy on void growth and linkage have been investigated. 2D model materials were fabricated by laser drilling a band of holes into the gage section of sheet tensile samples using various orientation angles with respect to the tensile axis normal. Both copper and magnesium sheets have been studied in order to examine the role of crystallographic anisotropy on the void growth and linkage processes. The samples were pulled in uniaxial tension inside the chamber of an SEM, enabling a quantitative assessment of the growth and linkage processes. The void band orientation angle has a significant impact on the growth and linkage of the holes in copper. As the void band orientation angle is increased from 0° to 45°, the processes of coalescence and linkage are delayed to higher strain values. Furthermore, the mechanism of linkage changes from internal necking to one dominated by shear localization. In contrast, the void band orientation does not have a significant impact on the void growth and linkage processes in magnesium. Void growth in these materials occurs non-uniformly due to interactions between the holes and the microstructure. The heterogeneous nature of deformation in magnesium makes it difficult to apply a coalescence criterion based on the void dimensions. Furthermore, the strain at failure does not show a relationship with the void band orientation angle. Failure associated with twin and grain boundaries interrupts the plastic growth of the holes and causes rapid fracture. Therefore, the impact of the local microstructure outweighs the effects of the void band orientation angle in this material.

Two mechanisms of ductile fracture: void by void growth versus multiple void interaction

Two distinct mechanisms of crack initiation and advance by void growth have been identified in the literature on the mechanics of ductile fracture. One is the interaction a single void with the crack tip characterizing initiation and the subsequent void by void advance of the tip. This mechanism is represented by the early model of Rice and Johnson and the subsequent more detailed numerical computations of McMeeking and coworkers on a single void interacting with a crack tip. The second mechanism involves the simultaneous interaction of multiple voids on the plane ahead of the crack tip both during initiation and in subsequent crack growth. This mechanism is revealed by models with an embedded fracture process zone, such as those developed by Tvergaard and Hutchinson. While both mechanisms are based on void nucleation, growth and coalescence, the inferences from them with regard to crack growth initiation and growth are quantitatively different. The present paper provides a formulation and numerical analysis of a two-dimensional plane strain model with multiple discrete voids located ahead of a pre-existing crack tip. At initial void volume fractions that are sufficiently low, initiation and growth is approximately represented by the void by void mechanism. At somewhat higher initial void volume fractions, a transition in behavior occurs whereby many voids ahead of the tip grow at comparable rates and their interaction determines initiation toughness and crack growth resistance. The study demonstrates that improvements to be expected in fracture toughness by reducing the population of second phase particles responsible for nucleating voids cannot be understood in terms of trends of one mechanism alone. The transition from one mechanism to the other must be taken into account.     

Void collapse/growth in solid materials under overall shear loading

The present work aims at studying numerically the influence of void concentration, number of voids and absence/presence of inclusion on void collapse/growth and coalescence in materials submitted to shear loading. Starting from the experimental observation that voiding mostly forms within bands of localised deformation in the form of void sheets, the geometrical configuration retained to that purpose is a layer of periodic cells with 1–5, empty or particle-containing voids, subject to simple shearing.     

A constitutive model for plastically anisotropic solids with non-spherical voids

Plastic constitutive relations are derived for a class of anisotropic porous materials consisting of coaxial spheroidal voids, arbitrarily oriented relative to the embedding orthotropic matrix. The derivations are based on nonlinear homogenization, limit analysis and micromechanics. A variational principle is formulated for the yield criterion of the effective medium and specialized to a spheroidal representative volume element containing a confocal spheroidal void and subjected to uniform boundary deformation. To obtain closed form equations for the effective yield locus, approximations are introduced in the limit-analysis based on a restricted set of admissible microscopic velocity fields. Evolution laws are also derived for the microstructure, defined in terms of void volume fraction, aspect ratio and orientation, using material incompressibility and Eshelby-like concentration tensors. The new yield criterion is an extension of the well known isotropic Gurson model. It also extends previous analyses of uncoupled effects of void shape and material anisotropy on the effective plastic behavior of solids containing voids. Preliminary comparisons with finite element calculations of voided cells show that the model captures non-trivial effects of anisotropy heretofore not picked up by void growth models.
