Temperature-history dependence in anisothermal cyclic plasticity of 304 stainless steel is studied for the constitutive modeling within the temperature range from room temperature to 600°C. Cyclic plastic behavior under in-phase and out-of-phase changes of temperature and athermal strain is analyzed first by use of an elaborate constitutive model with its material constants determined from isothermal experiments; good agreement is obtained between the predictions and experiments, if we assume that the internal change proper to higher temperature prevails under such thermomechanical cycling. This finding leads us to extend the evolution equation of isotropic hardening so that it can be valid for more complex variations of temperature. The extended model simulates well the recent experiments of Niitsu and Ikegami under multi-step changes of temperature.

Combined axial-torsional experiments have been conducted at room temperature on thin-walled tubes to investigate the strain hardening behavior of annealed 304 stainless steel due to creep. The constant strain-rate dynamic loading (or SCISR) surfaces representing the state of material before and after creep have benn determined. It has been found that transient creep essentially causes the loading surface to undergo kinematic hardening with insignificant amount of isotropic hardening for this material. A conclusion is drawn that the loading surface hardened by transient creep is the same as that hardened by plastic deformation. This is true both for specimens with pure tension and pure torsion loading paths. The results confirm assumptions of the overstress theory of viscoplasticity.

This paper presents a constitutive modelling of the polycrystalline thin metal strip under a state of combined loading in microflexible rolling. The concept of grained inhomogeneity is incorporated into the classic Chaboche hardening model that accounts for the Bauschinger effect, in order to provide more precise description and analysis of the springback mechanism in the particular forming operation. The model is first implemented in the finite element program ABAQUS to numerically predict the stress-strain relationship of 304 stainless steel specimens over a range of average grain sizes. After validation of the developed model by comparison of predicted curves and actual stress-strain data points, it is further applied to predict the thickness directional springback in microflexible rolling of 304 stainless steel strips with initial thickness of 250 µm and reduction changing from 5 to 10%. The model predictions show a reasonable agreement with the experimental measurements and have proven to be more accurate than those obtained from the conventional multilinear isotropic hardening model in combination with the Voronoi tessellation technique. In addition, the variation of thickness directional springback along with the scatter effect is compared and analysed in regard to the average grain size utilising both qualitative and quantitative approaches in respect of distinct types of data at different reductions.

The cyclic elastic-plastic behavior of SUS 304 stainless steel was investigated experimentally under various temperatures and temperature-changing conditions. The specimens were cyclically loaded between fixed axial strain limits at constant temperatures in the range from room temperature to 600°C. The effects of the cyclic strain amplitude on the saturation property of cyclic hardening were obtained at various temperatures. The effects of temperature variations on the cyclic hardening were examined under the temperature conditions of changing between two different temperatures. From these experimental results, the effects of the temperature variation on the saturation properties were found under several temperature conditions. The three different hardening models accounting for these cyclic hardening properties were proposed. The experimental results were compared with the results calculated by those three cyclic hardening models.

Two surface theories for rate-independent plasticity have previously been shown to offer superior correlative capability in modeling material response under non-proportional loading. In this study, a class of kinematic hardening rules characterized by a decomposition of the total kinematic hardening variable is discussed. The concept of generalized image point hardening in conjunction with mulitple loading surface interpretations is presented. The ability of this class of rules to correlate experimental data from stable nonproportional cycling of Type 304 stainless steel at room temperature is examined. In addition, the proper framework for inclusion of isotropic hardening for this class of models is discussed.
