Abstract: | Metal forming processes are important technologies for the production of engineering structures. In order to optimize the resulting material properties, it becomes necessary to simulate the entire forming process by taking into account physical effects such as phase transformations. In this work, we concentrate on the phase change from austenite to martensite and present a macroscopic material model, which combines the effect of classical plasticity with the effect of transformation induced plasticity (TRIP). An extensive experimental database for a low-alloy steel is used for parameter identification, thus taking into account the effects of uniaxial compressive and tensile stress on the kinetics of phase transformation at different temperatures. For temperatures below the martensite start temperature with simultaneous stresses above the yield limit, it is difficult to obtain experimental data. Consequently, a numerical homogenization technique is employed for this case. In a further part of this paper, an effective integration scheme is provided, which is implemented into a commercial finite element program. In a finite element simulation, the austenite to martensite phase transformation in a shaft subjected to thermal loading is investigated. |
