ABSTRACT
|
This
article deals with biaxial low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of the
material SA333 C-Mn steel in tension-torsion experiments. Two sets of experiments have been conducted with this material for tension-torsion loading with tubular specimens. The first set
is
for in-phase loading with strain ratio (shear strain/axial strain)
1.732 for different plastic strain amplitudes. The second set of experiments
is for 90° out of phase for the same strain ratio for different plastic
strain amplitudes. The experimental observations show extra
hardening due to non-proportionality in 90°out of phase loading. The non
proportionality index is calculated from Benallal [1] criterion. Finite
Element simulations of the tension-torsion experiments have been
carried out. The material model has been developed in the framework of
von-Mises cyclic plasticity theory. Ohno-Wang nonlinear kinematic
hardening rule, modified by Jiang-Sehitoglu [2] has been used. Cyclic
hardening/softening is introduced through isotropic hardening rule. The
cyclic hardening/softening is split into two components, namely the
proportional part and the extra hardening due to non proportionality in
loading. The material constants have been derived from the experimental
results. The non-proportional hardening is calibrated by the Benallal
non-proportionality index. Axial stress-strain loops and Shear
stress-strain loops are simulated for both in-phase and 90°out-of-phase
tension-torsion loadings. The simulated results are compared with the
experimental results. |
