Constant strain-rate plastic straining followed by creep tests were conducted to investigate the effect of prior plastic straining on the subsequent creep behavior of 304 stainless steel at room temperature. The effects of plastic strain and plastic strain-rate were delineated by a specially designed test procedure, and it is found that both factors have a strong influence on the subsequent creep deformation. A creep model combining the two factors is then developed. The predictions of the model are in good agreement with the test results.

AbstractResults obtained from tensile and compressive tests on pure ice single crystals at various temperatures down to −90°C are reported. At −50°C tensile creep tests give a continually increasing creep rate until fracture, as observed at higher temperatures. The stress dependence of the strain-rate is discussed. Fracture stress increases with decreasing temperature. Results from constant strain-rate compressive tests are compared with theoretical curves computed from Johnston’s (1962) theory of dislocation multiplication. A dislocation velocity of the order of 0.5×10−8 m s−1 is deduced for ice at −50°C.

AbstractIcosahedral AlCuFe poly-quasicrystalline specimens were deformed in constant strain rate compression tests at temperatures ranging between 300K - 1020K. Below nearly 0.7 Tm (Tm is the melting temperature) the specimens were brittle. Above the brittle-to-ductile transition temperature, after the elastic stage the stress-strain curves exhibit a marked yield-point followed by a stage of strain softening only. Transient creep tests were performed at different given stress/strain levels after interrupting the constant strain-rate deformation tests. After the transient tests, the flow strength of the specimens was investigated anew at constant strain rate. The results are interpreted in the framework of a dislocation model, where two effects opposing dislocation movement are considered: firstly, the usual elastic dislocation interaction, yielding a work-hardening contribution, and, secondly, a friction stress specific to the quasiperiodic lattice, leading to a softening effect.

ABSTRACTRepeated creep tests were used for measuring various constant strain-rate deformation parameters. The results are consistent with those of repeated stress relaxations, although the precision is lower for creep in the present case. The small yield point observed in reloading after the transient is directly related to the amount of exhausted mobile dislocations, i.e. it originates from multiplication processes. During the transient test (180s total), the total exhaustion rate of mobile dislocations can be as high as 99%. It exhibits a maximum at the same T (about 500 K) as the work hardening. This supports the validity of a model which considers the work-hardening peak temperature to correspond to the stress under which incomplete Kear-Wilsdorf locks yield.

The soft-matter element between the ideal solid and the ideal liquid is established and is described based on the definition of the fractional derivatives. By replacing a component in the generalized Kelvin model with the soft-matter component and connecting it in series with a nonlinear visco-plastic body, a nonlinear viscoelasto-plastic rheological model is proposed based on the fractional derivatives in order to describe the rheological behaviors of rocks. The data obtained from the triaxial creep tests of a typical rock are simulated with this model and the fitting result is good. The model can describe well three rheological stages of the rock during the triaxial creep tests. The validity of this model is then discussed. In this model, the fractional order β controls creep strain rate in the stable creep stage under the condition of low stress; while the creep index n controls creep rate of the accelerated rheological stage under the condition of high stress. Few parameters and good simulation results manifest the outstanding performance of the model. The model also adopts the damage theory to describe the progressive deterioration of rock viscous coefficient of the accelerated creep stage. The model can also give an excellent description of the three rheological stages of rocks, especially the accelerated creep stage.

The drained triaxial creep tests were carriedout to investigate the relationshipsbetween axial strain and time, axial strain and deviatoricstress, and axial strain rate and time for the undisturbed samples of muddy clay and clay in Tianjin.Based on the creep test results, the Singh-Mitchell modelwas used for creep calculation. The results showed that the muddyclay and clay exhibited typical non-linear creep properties. The axial strain increasedwith time and then gradually tendedto be stable.The strain rate increasedasthe deviatoric stress increased, and the muddy clay and clay showedthe characteristics of attenuation creep under deviatoricstresses. The axial strain of muddy clay wassignificantly larger than that of clay, and reachedthestable state within 3000 minutes.Under low deviatoricstress, the slope of the isochronal curve was smaller; while under high deviatoric stress, the slope of the isochronal curve waslarger.The test results were in good agreement with the calculation results, which indicated that the Singh-Mitchell model wassuitable for describing the creep behaviorsof the undisturbed claysin Tianjin.
