An analysis of test system misalignment is presented for dynamic tension test. Sheet type rectangular 1100-0 aluminum specimens are used for discussion. For a constant strain rate tension test, the strain rate is constant only on the neutral axis of the specimen. The lower the strain rate is, the more significant the misalignment errors become. The neutral axis will shift away from the centerline of the specimen as the plastic strain increases. But, it will reach a limit and will not completely move back to the centerline.

Constant strain-rate plastic straining followed by creep tests were conducted to investigate the effect of prior plastic straining on the subsequent creep behavior of 304 stainless steel at room temperature. The effects of plastic strain and plastic strain-rate were delineated by a specially designed test procedure, and it is found that both factors have a strong influence on the subsequent creep deformation. A creep model combining the two factors is then developed. The predictions of the model are in good agreement with the test results.

ABSTRACTThe characterisation of dislocation mechanisms in connection with macroscopic mechanical properties are usually performed through transient tests, such as strain-rate jumps, load relaxations or creep experiments. The present paper includes a careful and complete theoretical analysis of the relaxation and the creep kinetics. We experimentally show that the plastic strain-rate is continuous at the transition between constant strain-rate conditions and both load relaxation and creep test. The product of the plastic strain-rate at the onset of the transient test () with the characteristic time (tk) of the transient is found to be independent of , as theoretically expected. This is a clear indication that the assumptions underlying the theoretical analysis are relevant.

A study was undertaken on the compressive high strain rate properties and deformation behaviour of Direct Metal Laser-Sintered (DMLS) Ti6Al4V (ELI) parts in two separate forms: as-built (AB) and stress relieved (SR). The high strain rate compression tests were carried out using a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar test system at ambient temperature. The average plastic strain rates attained by the system were 400 s−1 and 700 s−1. Comparative analyses of the performance (flow stresses and fracture strains) of AB and SR specimens were carried out based on the results obtained at these two plastic strain rates. Microstructural analyses were performed to study the failure mechanisms of the deformed specimens and fracture surfaces. Vickers microhardness test values were obtained before and after high strain rate compression testing. The results obtained in both cases showed the strain rate sensitivity of the stress-relieved samples to be higher in comparison to those of as-built ones, at the same value of true strain.

An analysis of test system misalignment is presented for the creep test. Sheet type rectangular 1100-0 aluminum specimens are used for discussion. It is found that the creep strain at the geometric centerline of the specimen is different than that at the neutral axis. However, this difference in the creep strain decreases with time. Generally, the effect of misalignment decreases with creep time. Creep tests conducted with long pullrods and large initial strain level (high creep stress) will tend to minimize the effect of misalignment.

The uniaxial compressive tests are conducted on synthetic gas hydrate-bearing sediment samples by using the low-temperature high-pressure triaxial test system. The effects of the temperature, the strain rate and the failure time on the uniaxial compressive strength of hydrate sediment are measured. The results indicate that: (a) The uniaxial compressive strength is sensitive to the change of temperature and increases exponentially as temperature decreases. (b) The uniaxial compressive strength of hydrate sediment changes with the strain rate obviously, and increases with the strain rate increasing following a power function. (c) The uniaxial compressive strength increases with the failure time decreasing following a power function.

ABSTRACTTwo types of transient creep experiments performed along stress-strain curves are described and successfully applied to γ TiAl polycrystals at room temperature. They allow to determine activation volumes in good agreement with those measured through successive load relaxation tests. In addition, the combination of the latter method and the present ones provides relevant values of the plastic strain hardening coefficient. This latter parameter is found to exhibit similar values in transient as well as during constant strain rate tests.

The constitutive modeling of aluminum alloy under warm forming conditions generally considers the influence of temperature and strain rate. It has been shown by published flow stress curves of Al-Mg alloy that there is nearly no effect of strain rate on initial yield stress at various temperatures. However, most constitutive models ignored this phenomenon and may lead to inaccurate description. In order to capture the rate-independent initial yield stress, Peric model is modified via introducing plastic strain to multiply the strain rate, for eliminating the effect of strain rate when the plastic strain is zero. Other constitutive models including the Wagoner, modified Hockett–Sherby and Peric are also considered and compared. The results show that the modified Peric model could not only describe the temperature-and rate-dependent flow stress, but also capture the rate-independent initial yield stress, while the Wagoner, modified Hockett–Sherby and Peric model can only describe the temperature-and rate-dependent flow stress. Moreover, the modified Peric model could obtain proper static yield stress more naturally, and this property may have potential applications in rate-dependent simulations.
