CONSTITUTIVE MODELING OF ROLLED SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY SHEETS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT PRE-TEXTURE AND ANISOTROPIC HARDENING

The drawing or rolling process endows polycrystal shape memory alloy with a crys- tallographic texture, which can result in macroscopic anisotropy. The main purpose of this work is to develop a constitutive model to predict the thermomechanical behavior of shape memory alloy sheets, which accounts for the crystallographic texture. The total macroscopic strain is decom- posed into elastic strain and macro-transformation strain under isothermal condition. Considering the transformation strain in local grains and the orientation distribution function of crystallo- graphic texture, the macro-transformation strain and the effective elastic modulus of textured polycrystal shape memory alloy are developed by using tensor expressions. The kinetic equation is established to calculate the volume fraction of the martensite transformation under given stress. Furthermore, the Hill＇s quadratic model is developed for anisotropic transformation hardening of textured SMA sheets. All the calculation results are in good agreement with experimental data, which show that the present model can accurately describe the macro-anisotropic behaviors of textured shape memory alloy sheets.     

Phase proportioning in CuAlBe shape memory alloys during thermomechanical loadings using electric resistance variation

The microstructure of shape memory alloys changes with the thermomechanical history of the material. During thermomechanical loading, austenite, thermally-induced martensite or stress-induced martensite can be simultaneously present in the material. In applications integrating SMA parts, utilization conditions seriously affect the microstructure and can generate macroscopic strain or stress. Consequently, during thermomechanical loadings, it is important to be able to proportion the different phases and consequently to understand the kinetic transformation. This is very useful in the development of constitutive equations. This study shows, by a series of tests, that the proposed experimental method, based on the measurement of the variation of electric resistance of CuAlBe wires, permits to determine the volume fraction of the different phases present in the material (i.e., austenite, stress-induced martensite and thermally-induced martensite). The proposed method is applied to the most common thermomechanical behavior met in engineering applications of shape memory alloys: pseudoelasticity, pseudoplasticity, recovery-stress and stress-assisted two-way shape memory effect. The proportioning method based on a mixture law integrating the resistivity of pure phases present in the SMA is first performed on different two-phase mixture cases and then applied to a three phase mixture case.

ADVANCES IN TRANSFORMATION RATCHETING AND RATCHETING-FATIGUE INTERACTION OF NITI SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY

The accumulation of inelastic deformation occurring in NiTi shape memory alloy under the stress-controlled cyclic loading condition is named transformation ratcheting, since it is mainly caused by the solid-solid transformation from austenite to martensite phase and vice versa. The transformation ratcheting and its effect on the fatigue life (i.e., transformation-fatigue interaction) are key issues that should be addressed in order to assess the fatigue of NiTi shape memory alloy more accurately. In this paper, the advances in the studies on the transformation ratcheting and ratcheting-fatigue interaction of super-elastic NiTi shape memory alloy in recent years are reviewed: First, experimental observation of the uniaxial transformation ratcheting and ratcheting-fatigue interaction of super-elastic NiTi alloy under the stress-controlled cyclic loading conditions is treated, and the detrimental effect of transformation ratcheting on the fatigue life is addressed; Secondly, two types of cyclic constitutive models (i.e., a macroscopic phenomenological model and a micromechanical one based on crystal plasticity) constructed to describe the transformation ratcheting of super-elastic NiTi alloy are discussed; Furthermore, an energy-based failure model is provided and dealt with by comparing its predicted fatigue lives with experimental ones; Finally, some suggestions about future work are made.     

A non-local implicit gradient-enhanced model for unstable behaviors of pseudoelastic shape memory alloys in tensile loading

In this paper, a gradient-enhanced 3-D phenomenological model for shape memory alloys using the non-local theory is developed based on a 1-D constitutive model. The method utilizes a non-local field variable in its constitutive framework with an implicit gradient formulation in order to achieve results independent of the finite element discretization. An efficient numerical approach to implement the non-local gradient-enhanced model in finite element codes is proposed. The model is used to simulate stress drop at the onset of transformation, and its performance is evaluated using different experimental data. The potential of the presented numerical approach for behavior of shape memory alloys in eliminating mesh-dependent simulations is validated by conducting various localization problems. The numerical results show that the developed model can simulate the observed unstable behaviors such as stress drop and deviation of local strain from global strain during nucleation and propagation of martensitic phase.     

A constitutive theory for shape memory polymers. Part II: A linearized model for small deformations

A constitutive theory is developed for shape memory polymers. It is to describe the thermomechanical properties of such materials under large deformations. The theory is based on the idea, which is developed in the work of Liu et al. [2006. Thermomechanics of shape memory polymers: uniaxial experiments and constitutive modelling. Int. J. Plasticity 22, 279-313], that the coexisting active and frozen phases of the polymer and the transitions between them provide the underlying mechanisms for strain storage and recovery during a shape memory cycle. General constitutive functions for nonlinear thermoelastic materials are used for the active and frozen phases. Also used is an internal state variable which describes the volume fraction of the frozen phase. The material behavior of history dependence in the frozen phase is captured by using the concept of frozen reference configuration. The relation between the overall deformation and the stress is derived by integration of the constitutive equations of the coexisting phases. As a special case of the nonlinear constitutive model, a neo-Hookean type constitutive function for each phase is considered. The material behaviors in a shape memory cycle under uniaxial loading are examined. A linear constitutive model is derived from the nonlinear theory by considering small deformations. The predictions of this model are compared with experimental measurements.

Constitutive model for uniaxial transformation ratchetting of super-elastic NiTi shape memory alloy at room temperature

The transformation ratchetting of super-elastic NiTi shape memory alloy was observed by the uniaxial stress-controlled cyclic tests [Kang, G.Z., Kan, Q.H., Qian, L.M., Liu, Y.J, 2009a. Ratchetting deformation of super-elastic and shape memory NiTi Alloys. Mech. Mater. 41, 139–153]. It is concluded that the NiTi alloy presents apparent ratchetting behaviour, and the ratchetting is collectively caused by the cyclic accumulation of residual induced-martensite and the transformation-induced plastic deformation (i.e., namely transformation ratchetting). Based on the experimental results, a cyclic constitutive model was constructed in the framework of generalized plasticity [Lubliner, J., Auricchio, F., 1996. Generalized plasticity and shape memory alloys. Int. J. Solids Struct. 33, 991–1003] to describe the transformation ratchetting of super-elastic NiTi alloy. The proposed model simultaneously accounts for the evolutions of residual induced-martensite and transformation-induced plastic strain during the stress-controlled cyclic loading by introducing an internal variable z_c, i.e., cumulated induced-martensite volume fraction. The dependence of transformation ratchetting on the applied stress levels and the phase transformation hardening behaviour of the NiTi alloy are also considered in the developed model. The anisotropic phase transformation behaviours of the alloy presented in the tension and compression cases are described by employing a Drucker–Prager-typed transformation surface. It is shown that the simulated results of transformation ratchetting obtained by the proposed model are in good agreement with the corresponding experiments, since the typical features of transformation ratchetting are reasonably captured by the proposed model.
