A new approach to allow the modelling of the viscous behaviour of natural clay soils, including creep, stress relaxation and the effects of applied strain rate on soil stiffness, has been developed based on the BRICK constitutive model (published by Simpson in 1992). The new model, “strain rate–dependent” (SRD) BRICK, was used in a series of simulations to demonstrate its capabilities in predicting realistic behaviour during one-dimensional compression and undrained triaxial tests in which applied strain rates were varied. Triaxial stress path tests conducted by Gasparre et al. in 2007 to assess the influence of creep, resulting from recent stress history, on soil stiffness were also simulated. The observed trends concerning the stiffness at small strains were successfully modelled.

AbstractThis paper reports on the influence of strain rate on the onset of mechanical softening of nanocrystalline gold at room temperature. Micro-tensile testing was performed with applied strain rates on the order of 10−4 s−1 to 10−6 s−1. Our results defined a threshold strain rate, whereby plastic deformation at larger rates was dominated by dislocation processes and at smaller rates by one or more other deformation mechanisms. Furthermore, the data suggested that the critical grain size for inverse Hall-Petch behavior was strain rate sensitive.

Current industrial trends bring new challenges in energy absorbing systems. Polymer materials as the traditional packaging materials seem to be promising due to their low weight, structure, and production price. Based on the review, the linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) material was identified as the most promising material for absorbing impact energy. The current paper addresses the identification of the material parameters and the development of a constitutive material model to be used in future designs by virtual prototyping. The paper deals with the experimental measurement of the stress-strain relations of linear low-density polyethylene under static and dynamic loading. The quasi-static measurement was realized in two perpendicular principal directions and was supplemented by a test measurement in the 45° direction, i.e., exactly between the principal directions. The quasi-static stress-strain curves were analyzed as an initial step for dynamic strain rate-dependent material behavior. The dynamic response was tested in a drop tower using a spherical impactor hitting a flat material multi-layered specimen at two different energy levels. The strain rate-dependent material model was identified by optimizing the static material response obtained in the dynamic experiments. The material model was validated by the virtual reconstruction of the experiments and by comparing the numerical results to the experimental ones.

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.

Liquid Behavior

A superplastic Zn-Al alloy in sheet form is formed into a bulge over a circular hole by pneumatic pressure. The geometry, the stress, the strain, and the strain-rate are determined at various points covering the whole specimen and at various stages of the forming process. The complicated shape, and its complicated changes, are represented by introducing an index for the local geometry, called “prolateness,” which is also related to the local stress ratio in a simple way. The biaxial stress is analyzed into a strain-proportional and a strain-rate-proportional component, which represent, respectively, the quasi-solid and the quasi-liquid behavior of the superplastic material.

Soil Behaviour

AbstractSoil behaviour is stress history dependent and stress path dependent and soil parameters, particularly those for stress-strain behaviour, measured in conventional triaxial tests may not represent the behaviour of soil in many civil engineering works.To obtain more realistic parameters it may be necessary to conduct laboratory tests which more closely represent in situ conditions before and during construction.The paper describes equipment developed at The City University to carry out stress path tests simply and economically. A series of CU triaxial tests and stress path tests on reconstituted soil illustrate the dependence of measured soil parameters on stress history and stress path.
