An experimental study on the ratcheting behavior of pure aluminium under uniaxial cyclic stressing

An experimental study was carried out for the cyclic properties of pure aluminium subjected to uniaxial cyclic straining and stressing. For a material of pure aluminium the effects of the cyclic strain amplitude history and mean strain on the cyclic deformation behavior were investigated, and the influences of stress amplitude, mean stress and their histories on cyclic creep (i. e., ratcheting) were analyzed. It is shown that either uniaxial cyclic property under cyclic straining or ratcheting behavior under asymmetric uniaxial loading depends not only on the current loading, but also on the previous loading history. Some significant results were obtained.Financial support from NFSC is acknowledged.     

Ratchetting of viscoplastic material with cyclic softening,part 1: experiments on modified 9Cr–1Mo steel

Uniaxial and multiaxial ratchetting tests were conducted at temperatures between 200 and 600 °C on modified 9Cr–1Mo steel, which exhibits both viscoplastic and cyclic softening behavior. Anomalous behavior was observed in the stress-controlled uniaxial ratchetting tests; the material exhibited outstanding ratchetting in the tensile direction under zero mean stress. Under the uniaxial conditions, the ratchetting deformation significantly depended on the loading rate and hold time in addition to parameters such as the maximum stress and stress ratio. The uniaxial ratchetting was also accelerated to a great extent when cyclic deformation was given before the ratchetting tests. Under the multiaxial conditions, the ratchetting depended on the steady stress, cyclic strain range and strain rate. The ratchetting progressed faster as the steady stress or strain range became larger, or the strain rate became smaller, as expected. Monotonic compression tests were carried out to investigate the reason for the rachetting under no mean stress. Strain range change tests were also conducted to investigate the effect of strain range on the cyclic softening behavior of the material in detail.     

Kinematic hardening model suitable for ratchetting with steady-state

A new kinematic hardening model useful for simulating the steady-state in ratchetting is developed within the framework of the strain hardening and dynamic recovery format. The model is formulated to have two kinds of dynamic recovery terms, which operate at all times and only in a critical state, respectively. The model is examined on the basis of nonproportional experiments of Modified 9Cr–1Mo steel at 550°C and IN738LC at 850°C. The experiments include multiaxial, as well as uniaxial, ratchetting, multiaxial cyclic stress relaxation, and nonproportional cyclic straining along a butterfly-type strain path. It is shown that the model is successful in simulating the experiments, and that the model is featured by the capability of representing appropriately the steady-state in ratchetting under multiaxial and uniaxial cyclic loading.     

Time-dependent ratchetting experiments of SS304 stainless steel

The time-dependent strain cyclic characteristics and ratchetting behaviours of SS304 stainless steel were investigated by uniaxial/multiaxial cyclic loading tests at room and elevated temperatures (350 and 700 °C). The effects of loading rate, peak/valley strain or stress holds, ambient temperature and non-proportional loading path on the cyclic softening/hardening and ratchetting behaviours of the material were discussed. It is shown that: the cyclic deformation of the material presents remarkable time-dependence at room temperature and 700 °C; the cyclic hardening feature and ratchetting strain depend significantly on straining or stressing rate, hold-time, ambient temperature and the non-proportionality of loading path; the time-dependent ratchetting is resulted from the slight opening of hysteresis loop and visco-plasticity together, and the viscosity is a dominating factor at 700 °C; at 350 °C, abnormal rate-dependence and quick shakedown of ratchetting are observed due to the dynamic strain aging of the material at this temperature. Some significant conclusions are obtained, which are useful to construct a constitutive model to describe the time-dependent ratchetting behaviour of the material. It is also stated that the unified visco-plastic constitutive model discussed here cannot provide reasonable simulation to the time-dependent ratchetting at 700 °C, especially to that with certain peak/valley stress hold, since the effect of the high viscosity on time-dependent ratchetting cannot be properly described by using a unified visco-plastic flow rule.     

Cyclic multiaxial and shear finite deformation responses of OFHC Cu. Part II: An extension to the KHL model and simulations

In this part, the Khan–Huang–Liang (KHL) constitutive model was extended to account for kinematic hardening characteristic behavior of materials. The extended model is then generalized and used to simulate experimental response of oxygen free high conductivity (OFHC) copper under cyclic shear straining and biaxial tension–torsion (multiaxial ratchetting) experiments presented in Part I (Khan et al., 2007). In addition, a new modification for the non-linear kinematic hardening rule of Karim–Ohno (Abdel-Karim and Ohno, 2000) is proposed to simulate multiaxial ratchetting behaviors. Although, the kinematic hardening contributes the most to the response, it is shown that, the loading rate effect, and a coupled isotropic and kinematic hardening effect should also be considered while simulating the multiaxial ratchetting behavior of OFHC copper. Furthermore, the newly modified kinematic hardening rules is able to fairly well simulate the multiaxial ratchetting experiments under different loading conditions, irrespective of the value of applied axial tensile stress, shear strain amplitude, pre-cyclic hardening and/or loading sequence.
