Recent research indicates that accurate material behavior modeling plays an important role in the estimation of residual stresses in the bore of autofrettaged tubes. In this paper, the material behavior under plastic deformation is considered to be a function of the first stress invariant in addition to the second and the third invariants of the deviatoric stress tensor. The yield surface is assumed to depend on the first stress invariant and the Lode angle parameter which is defined as a function of the second and the third invariants of the deviatoric stress tensor. Furthermore for estimating the unloading behavior, the Chaboche's hardening evolution equation is modified. These modifications are implemented by adding new terms that include the effect of the first stress invariant and pervious plastic deformation history. For evaluation of this unloading behavior model a series of loading-unloading tests are conducted on four types of test specimens which are made of the high-strength steel, DIN 1.6959. In addition finite element simulations are implemented and the residual stresses in the bore of a simulated thick-walled tube are estimated under the autofrettage process. In estimating the residual stresses the effect of the tube end condition is also considered.

Creep theories with the effect of the third invariant of the deviatoric stress tensor and their accuracy as applied to practical problems are discussed. Constitutive equations for transient creep are first formulated by assuming creep potentials of the Prager-Drucker and the Bailey-Davis type together with the associated equivalent stress functions. Strain-hardening and time-hardening hypotheses are assumed. Experimental results hitherto reported for thin-walled tubes are discussed according to these equations. Then, the creep of a thick-walled tube of mild steel is analyzed and compared with experiments.

For soils, failure occurs with lower deviatoric stress under the same pressure (the first invariant of stress tensor) in TXE compared with the strength of the triaxial compression, which is indicated that the strength of soils strongly depends on the third invariant of stress deviator; Although in the traditional Mohr-Coulomb criterion it can be reflected in difference of strength between triaxial extension and compression under the same pressure, it’s nothing to do with the pressure for the strength ratio between triaxial extension and compression. By TXC and TXE, changes of deviatoric stress and the ratio with the pressure were studied

Nuclear power plants are designed to withstand earthquake loads without severe damage under service level D conditions. Under earthquake induced reversing dynamic load, nuclear power plant components may undergo plastic deformation. Plastic deformation in class I nuclear power plant piping systems is limited by Equation (9) of ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code [14], Section III, NB-3652. In the year 2000, the ASME B&PV Code was revised to accommodate reversing dynamic loading in which the failure mode is fatigue ratcheting, instead of plastic collapse. This modified equation [16] contains B2′ index, which is given as a fraction of B2 index where, B2 is defined for monotonic loading [17]. In this study a new definition is proposed for calculating B2′ stress index which is given by B2′ = MCLcyclicRange,straightpipe/MCLcyclicRange,component, where MClcyclicRange is the range of collapse moment. Incremental elastic-plastic nonlinear finite element analyses are performed considering both material and geometric nonlinearities. Kinematic hardening, isotropic hardening and elastic-perfectly plastic material models have been used to model the material behavior during plastic deformation. Load deflection curves are obtained and from these curves collapse loads for monotonic and cyclic loading are determined. B2 and B2′ stress indices are computed for elbows using the proposed equation. The computed stress indices are compared with ASME Code values.
