A rheological model aimed at accounting for the existence of two types of viscoplastic flow (microplastic and macroplastic) in 316 stainless steel is described in the most general state of stress. A distribution between active loadings (macroplastic strains) and unloadings (and/or loadings in a microplastic domain) made through a criterion essentially based on internal variables. A single internal variable is introduced in a single plastic state equation, the different behaviors being accounted for by the choice of the internal variable and of its hardening rules. Identification of these hardening laws are reported. It is seen that this model can predict a lot of various experimental observations in tensile, tensile-compression or tensile-compression-torsion tests. Numerical simulations of various tests extending from the tensile one to complex stress or strain paths in biaxial proportional loading are in a good quantitative agreement with the experimental results.

Experimental results aimed at establishing the relationship existing between plastic instantaneous and creep strains are reported. They are chiefly tensile at constant strain rates and tensile or tensile-torsion creep experiments. Recovery and hardening are also measured. It is shown that two types of viscous behavior may occur according to whether the loading path is an active loading or an unloading. The features of these two types of viscoplastic behavior are such that they can be modeled with the same plastic state equation using a single internal variable. But according to a criterion based on internal variables, the single internal variable of the plastic state equation may split into the sum of an isotropic and a kinematical variable with small strain hardening (case of large viscoplastic strains) or remain a single kinematical variable with very high hardening (case of unloadings). The bases of the model are described.

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.

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.
