Gears are mechanical components which experience high dynamic loading during their exploitation period. Therefore, their load carrying capacity together with life expectancy are often the main research interest in various studies. The research presented in this paper is focused on the materials response in spur gears tooth root, with the attention given to the repeated overloads during gears operation. In order to simulate low cycle fatigue by using numerical modeling of stress - strain relationship within material, the material model which takes into account isotropic and kinematic hardening is used here. Material response of specimens produced out of steel 42CrMo4 in different loading conditions is used for the calibration of material model, which is then applied to simulate damage initiation and materials stress - strain response in gears tooth root. The results show that materials response to the given loading conditions non-linearly change through the loading cycles.

This study is to indicate the methodology of investigating the behavior of materials in the plastic domain while bearing cyclic loading i.e. low cycle fatigue. Materials under such loading, which experience huge amount of plastic deformation, are affected by the hardening or softening effects of loading which should be taken into account in all applications and numerical simulations as well. This work investigates the methodology of obtaining the nonlinear isotropic and kinematic hardening of steel CK45. To find the parameters of the above mentioned combined nonlinear isotropic/kinematic hardening one tensile test as well as three strain-controlled low cycle fatigue tests are carried out to extract the monotonic stress/strain curve and three diagrams of hysteresis curves, respectively. Then, four parameters necessary to simulate the nonlinear isotropic/ kinematic behavior of the material are extracted by means of curve fitting technique using MATLAB software. Afterwards, the accuracy of the data extracted from the experimental tests using the proposed methodology, are verified in a finite element package, ABAQUS, through implementing two user defined subroutines UMAT written in FORTRAN. It is indicated that the computed constants draw stress-strain curves much closer to experimental responses than isotropic hardening model does.  Eventually, the numerical results acquired by simulating the behavior of the sample under cyclic loading with importing the constants, calculated via combined hardening model, to ABAQUS reflects results highly close to the experimentally obtained response of the sample. It means that the procedure used to find the constants is accurate enough and consequently the constants computed are able to be used in both ABAQUS and subroutines.

AbstractPrior low cycle fatigue (LCF) deformation in a 316LN austenitic stainless steel reduced the remnant high cycle fatigue (HCF) life as a function of the amount of LCF exposure and the applied strain amplitude. A critical LCF pre-damage was found necessary for an effective LCF-HCF interaction to take place.

The high temperature low cycle fatigue behavior of P91 weld metal (WM) and weld joints (cross-weld) is presented. Strain-controlled tests have been carried out at 400 °C and 500 °C. The cyclic behavior of the weld material (WM) and cross-weld (CW) specimens are compared with previously published base material (BM) tests. The weld material is shown to give a significantly harder and stiffer stress–strain response than both the base material and the cross-weld material. The cross-weld tests exhibited a cyclic stress–strain response, which was similar to that of the base material. All specimen types exhibited cyclic softening but the degree of softening exhibited by the cross-weld specimens was lower than that of the base material and all-weld tests. Finite element models of the base metal, weld metal and cross-weld test specimens are developed and employed for identification of the cyclic viscoplasticity material parameters. Heat affected zone (HAZ) cracking was observed for the cross-weld tests.

Nonlinear Hardening

Neuber’s rule is commonly applied in fatigue analysis to estimate the plasticity of purely elastic FEA results. In certain cases, this is more efficient than running elastic-plastic models. However, the applicability of Neuber’s rule is not well understood for complex models and may not always be appropriate. In this paper, the applicability of Neuber’s rule is investigated. The background of Neuber’s rule is discussed, theoretical limitations are derived, and algorithmic outlines of the procedures are presented. Neuber’s plasticity correction procedure is applied to both the Ramberg-Osgood elastic-plastic constitutive relation and the advanced Chaboche isotropic/kinematic nonlinear hardening relation. Throughout the manuscript, the aspects of each model are discussed from an educational perspective, highlighting each step of the implementation in sufficient detail for independent reproduction and verification. This level of detail is often absent from similar publications and, it is hoped, may lead to the wider dissemination of Neuber’s rule for plasticity correction. The final component of the paper presents a multiaxial correction of the Chaboche hardening model. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first published application of Neuber’s rule to the multiaxial plasticity correction of the Chaboche combined isotropic/kinematic hardening model. Examples are used to illustrate the behavior of the method and to present some of the commonly overlooked components when assessing the applicability of Neuber’s method.
