The effects of the history in strain-amplitude and temperature variation on the multiaxial cyclic behavior of type 316 stainless steel were discussed by performing a series of total-strain controlled cyclic tests under uniaxial tension-compression and circular strain paths. Constant strain rate of 0.2 percent/min was specified throughout the tests. The effects of strain amplitude history were examined by changing the strain amplitude between 0.2 percent and 0.4 percent (step-up and step-down tests) at room temperature, 400°C and 600°C. For temperature history dependence tests, the temperature was changed between 200°C and 600°C, 400°C and 600°C, 500°C and 600°C, by specifying a constant strain amplitude of 0.3 percent. It was observed that for the step-up change in strain amplitude the prior cycle showed apparently no influence on the subsequent cyclic accommodation for the uniaxial and the multiaxial cycles at room temperature, 400°C and 600°C. For the decrease in strain amplitude, however, the definite effect of the prior cycle was observed at 400°C, while at higher temperature it disappeared. The effect of the temperature history, on the other hand, appeared only in the case of the temperature-decrease during the uniaxial cycle.

Temperature dependence of multiaxial cyclic behavior of type 316 stainless steel was elucidated experimentally. Cyclic tests under constant total-strain amplitudes were performed for uniaxial tension-compression and circular (non-proportional) strain paths at several temperatures; room temperature, 200°C, 400°C, 500°C, 600°C, and 700°C. The strain amplitudes of the cycles were specified to be 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 percent under constant strain rate of 0.2 percent per min. A quantitative discussion was made with special emphasis on the difference between material behavior under uniaxial tension-compression strain cycles and multiaxial non-proportional circular ones at these temperatures. The most significant cyclic hardening was observed in the temperature range between 400°C and 600°C for both the proportional and the non-proportional strain cycles. At these particular temperatures, much larger inelastic strain was accumulated until a cyclic stabilization was obtained. Though the effect of non-proportionality in the cyclic strain paths on the cyclic hardening was significant particularly at the temperature below 450°C, it rapdily decreased at higher temperatures.

This study discusses multiaxial low cycle fatigue life of notched specimen under proportional and non-proportional loadings at room temperature. Strain controlled multiaxial low cycle fatigue tests were carried out using smooth and circumferentially notched round-bar specimens of type 316 stainless steel. Four kinds of notched specimens were employed of which elastic stress concentration factors, Kt, are 1.5, 2.5, 4.2 and 6.0. The strain paths include proportional and non-proportional loadings. The former employed a push-pull straining or a reversed torsion straining. The latter was achieved by strain path where axial and shear strains has 90 degree phase difference but their amplitudes is the same based on von Mises’ criterion. The notch dependency of multiaxial low cycle fatigue life and the life estimation are discussed. The lives depend on both Kt and strain path. The strain parameter for the life estimation is also discussed with the non-proportional strain parameter proposed by the author with introducing Kt. The proposed parameter gives a satisfactory correlation with multiaxial low cycle fatigue life of notched specimen of type 316 stainless steel under proportional and non-proportional loadings.

History effects of cyclic-plasticity on subsequent creep have been elucidated for type 316 stainless steel at 600°C under multiaxial states of stress. Tension-compression and circular strain paths were specified for the prior cyclic plasticity. Constant stress creep experiments under simple tension, simple torsion, and combined tensiontorsion were first performed after uniaxial tension-compression cycles stabilized under a constant total strain amplitude. Then, in order to elucidate the path shape effects of prior strain cycles, the subsequent creep curves under uniaxial tension were compared for the uniaxial tension-compression and the non-proportional circular strain cycles which stabilized at identical stress amplitudes. The experimental results showed that the prior tension-compression cycles induced the anisotropy in creep behavior; creep resistance which was initially isotropic was enhanced in torsional direction, while it was decreased in tensile one. Another significant observation was that the circular strain cycles showed much larger hardening effect on creep than the tension-compression cycle. Regarding the creep flow direction, the effect of the prior cycles was negligible.

This paper describes two biaxial experiments which investigated time and rate effects in the yield and deformation behavior of type 316 stainless steel at room temperature. The first experiment was aimed at determining the effect of probing rate on small-offset yield behavior. The primary aim of the second experiment was to investigate time-dependent flow after loading beyond initial yield. An additional aim was to investigate the effect of radial (3 σ12 = σ11) and nonradial preloads on the yield and hardening behavior. The first experiment showed that for the limited range investigated, 100 to 500 με/min, the probing rate had little effect on yield behavior. The small differences observed in the size and position of certain yield surfaces were shown to be related to the sequence in which the yield loci were determined. The second experiment showed that yield surfaces suffered considerable distortion from their initial near-circular form after both radial and nonradial preloads beyond initial yield. It also showed that the hardening behavior was predominantly kinematic for both types of preload. The strain-time data obtained after the preloads in this experiment showed characteristics typical of creep curves. A transient flow period was observed with high initial strain rates diminishing one or two orders of magnitude during the 0.5-h hold periods. This means that in detailed mechanical modeling of this material, careful attention should be given to time-dependent effects, even at room temperature.
