Age forming is an advanced manufacture technology for forming large aluminum panels. Temperature, initial stress level and pre-strains have a great effect on the formability and performance. The stress relaxation aging behavior of AA7150-T7751 under different temperatures, initial stress levels and pre-strains was studied through stress relaxation tests, tensile tests and TEM observations. The results show that the formability can be improved with the increase of temperature, initial stress levels and pre-strains. Deformation mechanisms during stress relaxation of the material were analyzed on the basis of creep stress exponent and apparent activation energy. The aging precipitates of the studied alloy were not sensitive to the age forming conditions, but drastically coarsened at over aging temperature, which decreased the mechanical properties. In addition, the relationship between stress relaxation behavior and aging strengthening is discussed. Based on the dislocation theory and the modified Arrhenius equation, a stress relaxation constitutive equation considering the initial mobile dislocation density and temperature dependent activation energy was established. This model can predict very well the stress relaxation behavior under various temperature, stress level and pre-strain conditions, with an average error of 2%.

Gh4169 Alloy

The relaxation properties of GH4169 alloy were studied contrastively at temperatures ranging from 600 oC to 700 °C and initial stress ranging from 550 MPa to 850 MPa. The relationship between the microstructure and relaxation behavior was evaluated using transmission electron microscopy techniques. It was found that the relaxation limit and relaxation stability of the alloy decreased obviously with the increase of temperature. Further investigations show that the relaxation behavior is mainly depend on both precipitate characteristics and its interaction with dislocations. The alloy with higher strength lever has more excellent stress relaxation stability, because of the inhibition of a large number subgrains on dislocations motion.

Stress relaxation behavior of thermosetting polyurethane (PU) solid and foam were investigated in tensile mode using a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). PU solid samples were manufactured in a closed mold under compression to avoid any foam formation, whilst the foam samples were manufactured inside a woven using a silicone mold. Effects of cure and the post-cure temperature were also investigated on the stress relaxation behavior. Samples in the form of rectangular cross-section were subjected to a predetermined amount tensile strain and the tensile force was recorded as a function of time. Relaxation modulus was determined for different temperatures up to near the glass transition temperature. It was found that the viscous part becomes dominant with increasing test temperature. The experimental data was precisely modeled using a generalized Maxwell’s model and the characteristic relaxation time was identified with the corresponding relaxation process. Although the stress relaxation behavior of PU solid and PU foams were found similar at room temperature, the relaxation behavior of the foam was found to be influenced by the cell morphology at higher temperature.

Natural rubber/chloroprene rubber (NR/CR) blends are among the commonly used rubber blends in industry and continuously are exposed to severe weather changes. To investigate the effects of accelerator type on the network structure and stress relaxation of unaged and aged NR/CE vulcanizates, tetramethyl thiuram disulfide, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, and diphenyl guanidine accelerators have been chosen to represent fast, moderate, and slow accelerator groups, respectively. Three batches have been prepared with exactly the same components and mixing conditions differing only in accelerator type. Temperatures scanning stress relaxation and pulse nuclear magnetic resonance techniques have been used to reveal the structural changes of differently accelerated rubber blends before and after weathering. Nonoxidative thermal decomposition analyses have been carried out using a thermogravimetric analyzer. Results indicate that there is a strong interdependence between accelerator type and stress relaxation behavior, network structure, cross-linking density, and aging behavior of the blends. Accelerator type also affects decomposition energy of the blends.

An analytical method based on a creep model is being developed to investigate the effect of retightening on stress relaxation behavior for high-temperature turbine and valve studs/bolts. In order to validate the approach, the calculated results are compared to the results of uniaxial reloading stress relaxation testing, which were performed by the National Research Institute for Metals of Japan (NRIM) for 12Cr-1Mo-1W-1/4V stainless steel bolting material at 550°C. It was shown that the proposed model based on Altenbach-Gorash-Naumenko creep model for the primary and steady state creep could be applied for the present data. The calculated residual stresses versus time curves were in good agreement with the measured for initial stress level of 273.6MPa at 550°C and for specific reloading time intervals of 24, 72, 240, and 720 hours.
