The subsequent anisotropic yield behavior of 45 steel was predicted by the distortional yield surface constitutive model, which can describe the anisotropic subsequent yield and the cross effect of metal associating with loading history. The yield characteristics and plastic hardening behaviors of the 45 steel were simulated under three preloading paths including pre-torsion, pre-tension, and pre-tension–torsion. Based on the comparison between the experimental yield stresses and the simulation by the classical Chaboche model, the proposed model can describe the remarkable anisotropic yield behavior related to the loading history, which can effectively describe the sharp point of yield surface in pre-loading direction and the smaller curvature near its opposite direction. It was successfully simulated by the constitutive model proposed that the subsequent distortional yield surface defined by small offset strain and the degradation process of the distortion feature defined by large offset strain.

Tension And Compression

This study develops a general temperature-dependent stress–strain constitutive model for polymer-bonded composite materials, allowing for the prediction of deformation behaviors under tension and compression in the testing temperature range. Laboratory testing of the material specimens in uniaxial tension and compression at multiple temperatures ranging from −40 ∘C to 75 ∘C is performed. The testing data reveal that the stress–strain response can be divided into two general regimes, namely, a short elastic part followed by the plastic part; therefore, the Ramberg–Osgood relationship is proposed to build the stress–strain constitutive model at a single temperature. By correlating the model parameters with the corresponding temperature using a response surface, a general temperature-dependent stress–strain constitutive model is established. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed model are validated using several independent sets of testing data and third-party data. The performance of the proposed model is compared with an existing reference model. The validation and comparison results show that the proposed model has a lower number of parameters and yields smaller relative errors. The proposed constitutive model is further implemented as a user material routine in a finite element package. A simple structural example using the developed user material is presented and its accuracy is verified.

The hot deformation behavior of SiC/6168Al composite was studied by means of hot compression tests in the temperature range of 300-450 °C and strain rate range of 0.01-10 s-1. The constitutive model was developed to predict the stress-strain curves of this composite during hot deformation. This model was established by considering the effect of the strain on material constants calculated by using the Zenter-Hollomon parameter in the hyperbolic Arrhenius-type equation. It was found that the relationship of n, α, Q, lnA and ε could be expressed by a five-order polynomial. The stress-strain curves obtained by this model showed a good agreement with experimental results. The proposed model can accurately describe the hot flow behavior of SiC/6168Al composite, and can be used to numerically analyze the hot forming processes.

AbstractTo describe uncured rubber melt flow, a modified Phan–Thien–Tanner (PTT) model was proposed to characterize the rheological behavior and a viscoelastic one-dimensional flow theory was established in terms of incompressible fluid. The corresponding numerical method was constructed to determine the solution. Rotational rheological experiments were conducted to validate the proposed model. The influence of the parameters in the constitutive model was investigated by comparing the calculated and experimental viscosity to determine the most suitable parameters. The uncured rubber viscosity was 3–4 orders larger than that of plastic and did not have a visible Newtonian region. Compared with the Cross-Williams-Landel-Ferry (Cross-WLF) and original PTT models, the modified PTT model can describe the rheological characteristics in the entire shear-rate region if the parameters are set correctly.

The general fractional operator shows its great predominance in the construction of constitutive model owing to its agility in choosing the embedded parameters. A generalized fractional viscoelastic–plastic constitutive model with the sense of the k-Hilfer–Prabhakar ( k-H-P) fractional operator, which has the character recovering the known classical models from the proposed model, is established in this article. In order to describe the damage in the creep process, a time-varying elastic element [Formula: see text] is used in the proposed model with better representation of accelerated creep stage. According to the theory of the kinematics of deformation and the Laplace transform, the creep constitutive equation and the strain of the modified model are established and obtained. The validity and rationality of the proposed model are identified by fitting with the experimental data. Finally, the influences of the fractional derivative order [Formula: see text] and parameter k on the creep process are investigated through the sensitivity analyses with two- and three-dimensional plots.

A novel reliability assessment method for degradation product with two dependent performance characteristics (PCs) is proposed, which is different from existing work that only utilized one dimensional degradation data. In this model, the dependence of two PCs is described by the Frank copula function, and each PC is governed by a random effected nonlinear diffusion process where random effects capture the unit to unit differences. Considering that the model is so complicated and analytically intractable, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method is used to estimate the unknown parameters. A numerical example about LED lamp is given to demonstrate the usefulness and validity of the proposed model and method. Numerical results show that the random effected nonlinear diffusion model is very useful by checking the goodness of fit of the real data, and ignoring the dependence between PCs may result in different reliability conclusion.

In this article, we propose a finite element numerical tool adapted to a Fe-based shape memory alloy structural analysis, based on a developed constitutive model that describes the effect of phase transformation, plastic sliding, and their interactions on the thermomechanical behavior. This model was derived from an assumed expression of the Gibbs free energy taking into account nonlinear interaction quantities related to inter- and intragranular incompatibilities as well as mechanical and chemical quantities. Two scalar internal variables were considered to describe the phase transformation and plastic sliding effects. The hysteretic and specific behavior patterns of Fe-based shape memory alloy during reverse transformation were studied by assuming a dissipation expression. The proposed model effectively describes the complex thermomechanical loading paths. The numerical tool derived from the implicit resolution of the nonlinear partial derivative constitutive equations was implemented into the Abaqus® finite element code via the User MATerial (UMAT) subroutine. After tests to verify the model for homogeneous and heterogeneous thermomechanical loadings, an example of Fe-based shape memory alloy application was studied, which corresponds to a tightening system made up of fishplates for crane rails. The results we obtained were compared to experimental ones.

Crash simulations were performed for automotive sheets. To understand the influence of crystal structures in sheet materials on crashworthiness, the effect of the yield function shape was studied by adopting the recently developed non-quadratic anisotropic yield surface, Yld2004-18p. The effect of the back-stress was also investigated by comparing simulation results obtained for the isotropic, kinematic and combined isotropic-kinematic hardening laws based on the modified Chaboche model. In addition, the effects of anisotropy and sheet thickness on crashworthiness were evaluated.

We propose a model describing the decrease in the market value of machines (depreciation) with age. Usually it is characterized by the percent good factor, i.e. the ratio of machine’s value to the value of similar new machinery item. Often, appraisers know about a used machinery item only by its age, but not its performance. Therefore, for the valuation of the machinery item of a known age, they have to use the mean (for machines of this age) of percent good factor. In the proposed model, the state of the machine is characterized by the intensity of the benefits it brings. In this case, the benefits from using the machine in a certain period are defined as the market value of the work performed by it minus operating costs. We describe the change in the intensity of benefits over time by the Wiener process with negative drift. This allows us to take into account the tendency for the performance of machine to deteriorate during operation. The market value of a machine is defined as the maximum mathematical expectation of the sum of discounted benefits from its use. It is shown that it corresponds to the moment the machine reaches a certain boundary state. The parameters of the Wiener process (drift and volatility) are expressed through the known characteristics of the machine's durability, namely the average value and the coefficient of variation of the service life. The dependences of the mean percent good factor of machines on the relative age (the ratio of age to the average service life) are found. It turned out that these dependencies are almost independent of the discount rate and average service life.

Abstract We present a constitutive model for particle-binder composites that accounts for finite-deformation kinematics, nonlinear elasto-plasticity without apparent yield, cyclic hysteresis, and progressive stress-softening before the attainment of stable cyclic response. The model is based on deformation mechanisms experimentally observed during quasi-static monotonic and cyclic compression of mock Plastic-Bonded Explosives (PBX) at large strain. An additive decomposition of strain energy into elastic and inelastic parts is assumed, where the elastic response is modeled using Ogden hyperelasticity while the inelastic response is described using yield-surface-free endochronic plasticity based on the concepts of internal variables and of evolution or rate equations. Stress-softening is modeled using two approaches; a discontinuous isotropic damage model to appropriately describe the softening in the overall loading-unloading response, and a material scale function to describe the progressive cyclic softening until cyclic stabilization. A nonlinear multivariate optimization procedure is developed to estimate the elasto-plastic model parameters from nominal stress-strain experimental compression data. Finally, a correlation between model parameters and the unique stress-strain response of mock PBX specimens with differing concentrations of aluminum is identified, thus establishing a relationship between model parameters and material composition.

In order to construct a constitutive model taking into the effect of both the fabric tensors and their evolution modes, this paper links modern ideas of thermomechanics opinion to the theory of fabric tensors. The anisotropic dissipation incremental function of modified Cam-clay constitutive model considering the effect of fabric characteristic can be obtained by establishing the relation between microstructure and plastic volume strain. After discussing the yield surfaces in the dissipative and the true stress space from the viewpoint of the evolution mode of the fabric tensors, the results indicate that the slope of the normal consolidation line and the critical state line will be governed by changes of void fabric. The model successfully captures most salient behaviors of granular materials related to fabric issues. In the dissipative stress space, the void of granular materials can rearrange and show more anisotropic. In the true stress space, fabric not only affects the deflection of the yield surface, but also affects the hardening rule.
