Parameter identification for improved viscoplastic model considering dynamic recrystallization

The successful application of viscoplastic model considering dynamic recrystallization depends on how well the parameters are identified. However, it is difficult to obtain satisfactory parameters using conventional parameter identification methods. The reasons are due to difficulties in obtaining homogeneous deformation, high complexity of physical process described by the model and large number of parameters. In this paper, the material parameters are identified by inverse analysis. Global information on objective function is firstly studied by an improved uniform random sampling method; secondly, a hybrid global optimization method, which combines the genetic algorithm, the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm, the augmented Gauss–Newton algorithm and the flexible tolerance method, is constructed and an inverse analysis numerical procedure, which combines the proposed optimization method with the finite element analysis, is proposed; at last, a set of satisfactory material parameters for 26Cr2Ni4MoV is obtained by the proposed inverse analysis numerical procedure.

An improved EMMS model for turbulent flow in pipe and its solution

Based on the existing energy-minimization multi-scale (EMMS) model for turbulent flow in pipe, an improved version is proposed, in which not only a new radial velocity distribution is introduced but also the quantification of total dissipation over the cross-section of pipe is improved for the dominant mechanism of fully turbulent flow in pipe. Then four dynamic equality constraints and some other constraints are constructed but there are five parameters involved, leading to one free variable left. Through the compromise in competition between dominant mechanisms for laminar and fully turbulent flow in pipe respectively, the above four constructed dynamic equality constraints can be closed. Finally, the cases for turbulent flow in pipe with low, moderate and high Reynolds number are simulated by the improved EMMS model. The numerical results show that the model can obtain reasonable results which agree well with the data computed by the direct numerical simulation and those obtained by experiment. This illustrates that the improved EMMS model for turbulent flow in pipe is reasonable and the compromise in competition between dominant mechanisms is indeed a universal governing principle hidden in complex systems. Especially, one more EMMS model for a complex system is offered, promoting the further development of mesoscience.

On criteria for dynamic adiabatic shear band propagation

In this work, we postulate the physical criterion for dynamic shear band propagation, and based on this assumption, we implement a numerical algorithm and a computation criterion to simulate initiation and propagation of dynamic adiabatic shear bands (ASBs). The physical criterion is based on the hypothesis that material inside the shear band region undergoes a dynamic recrystallization process during deformation under high temperature and high strain-rate conditions. In addition to providing a new perspective to the physics of the adiabatic shearbanding process and identifying material properties that play a crucial role in defining the material's susceptibility to ASBs, the proposed criterion is instrumental in numerical simulations of the propagation of ASBs when multi-physics models are adopted to describe and predict the complex constitutive behavior of ASBs in ductile materials. Systematic and large scale meshfree simulations have been conducted to test and validate the proposed criterion by examining the formation, propagation, and post-bifurcation behaviors of ASBs in two materials, 4340 steel and OFHC copper. The effects of heat conduction, in particular the length scale introduced by heat conduction, are also studied. The results of the numerical simulations are compared with experimental observations and a close agreement is found for various characteristic features of ASBs, such as the shear band width, speed of propagation, and maximum temperature.

A robust shell element in meshfree SPH method

With the incorporation of total Lagrangian smoothed particle hydrodynamics(SPH) method equation and moving least square(MLS) function,the traditional SPH method is improved regarding the stability and consistency.Based on Mindlin-Ressiner plate theory,the SPH method simulating dynamic behavior via one layer of particles is applied to plate’s mid-plane,i.e.,a SPH shell model is constructed.Finally,through comparative analyses on the dynamic response of square,stiffened shells and cylindrical shells under various strong impact loads with common finite element software,the feasibility,validity and numerical accuracy of the SPH shell method are verified.Consequently,further researches on SPH shell may well pave the way towards solving problems involving dynamic plastic damage,tearing or even crushing.

Large eddy simulation of high-Reynolds-number atmospheric boundary layer flow with improved near-wall correction

It is highly attractive to develop an efficient and flexible large eddy simulation(LES)technique for high-Reynolds-number atmospheric boundary layer(ABL)simulation using the low-order numerical scheme on a relatively coarse grid,that could reproduce the logarithmic profile of the mean velocity and some key features of large-scale coherent structures in the outer layer.In this study,an improved near-wall correction scheme for the vertical gradient of the resolved streamwise velocity in the strain-rate tensor is proposed to calculate the eddy viscosity coefficient in the subgrid-scale(SGS)model.The LES code is realized with a second-order finite-difference scheme,the scale-dependent dynamic SGS stress model,the equilibrium wall stress model,and the proposed correction scheme.Very-high-Reynolds-number ABL flow simulation under the neutral stratification condition is conducted to assess the performance of the method in predicting the mean and fluctuating characteristics of the rough-wall turbulence.It is found that the logarithmic profile of the mean streamwise velocity and some key features of large-scale coherent structures can be reasonably predicted by adopting the proposed correction method and the low-order numerical scheme.     

冲击载荷下脆性空心颗粒破碎机理

为考察脆性空心颗粒在冲击载荷作用下的应变率效应和破碎行为的细观机理,以粉煤灰漂珠为研究对象,基于低速冲击实验和有限元数值模拟,对比了典型空心颗粒材料在不同加载速率下的力学响应特性和细观压溃行为,阐释了材料宏观应变率效应产生的细观机理,获得以下结果。（1）在0.001～300 s?1应变率范围,漂珠颗粒的破碎率和Hardin破碎势平均提升了约21%和10%～30%,材料比吸能提升了50%～125%,比吸能的额外增加主要与动态颗粒滑移产生的摩擦耗能相关。颗粒平均尺寸较大的试样体现出更强的应变率效应。（2）初始压溃阶段的应力应变响应特征的数值模拟结果与实验结果较吻合,低速冲击下动态二次压溃现象产生的细观机理为动态颗粒滑移和压紧行为对加载速率的依赖性。(3) 数值模拟表明,冲击加载下产生相同应变时颗粒的损伤程度和范围大于准静态加载,这与实验所得破碎势随应变率增加的结果一致。对比低速冲击实验的相对破碎势分析和细观数值模拟结果可知,脆性颗粒堆积材料在动态冲击下表现出的宏观应变率效应主要归因于颗粒压溃行为的率敏感性和动态加载下颗粒破碎能量利用率的降低。

High temperature sensitivity of notched AISI 304L stainless steel tests

Experiments were designed to determine the failure characteristics of AISI 304L stainless steel under different stress triaxialities and temperatures up to 70% of melt. The data show that as temperature increases the displacement to failure of notched tensile specimens increases. The complex interaction of deformation mechanisms, such as twinning and dynamic recrystallization, appears to negate the damage accumulation at higher temperatures. Microstructural analyses and finite element simulations indicate that voids nucleate, grow, and coalesce more rapidly as temperature and triaxiality increase. Finite element simulations were performed to analyze temperature dependence on the Cocks–Ashby void growth model. The finite element simulations qualitatively show a double-knee that was observed in the notched experimental specimens after loading. The combined experimental–numerical study indicates that failure can be defined at several points in the notch tests when: (1) macrovoids starts to form, (2) the load drop-off occurs, and (3) total perforation of the specimen occurs. These three points occur simultaneously in ambient conditions but occur at different displacements at higher temperatures.     

An improved large eddy simulation of two-phase flows in a pump impeller

An improved large eddy simulation using a dynamic second-order sub-grid-scale (SGS) stress model has been developed to model the governing equations of dense turbulent particle-liquid two-phase flows in a rotating coordinate system, and continuity is conserved by a mass-weighted method to solve the filtered governing equations. In the current second-order SGS model, the SGS stress is a function of both the resolved strain-rate and rotation-rate tensors, and the model parameters are obtained from the dimensional consistency and the invariants of the strain-rate and the rotation-rate tensors. In the numerical calculation, the finite volume method is used to discretize the governing equations with a staggered grid system. The SIMPLEC algorithm is applied for the solution of the discretized governing equations. Body-fitted coordinates are used to simulate the two-phase flows in complex geometries. Finally the second-order dynamic SGS model is successfully applied to simulate the dense turbulent particle-liquid two-phase flows in a centrifugal impeller. The predicted pressure and velocity distributions are in good agreement with experimental results.
