The isotropic hardening is known to play an effective role in the overhardening of materials under nonproportional cyclic loading. However, the behavior of the two states of Waspaloy (namely overaged and underaged states) under these loading conditions, shows that the kinematic hardening has also a considerable role in the overhardening. Experimental tests were carried out on these two states under various proportional and nonproportional cyclic loading conditions at room temperature. The effect of loading paths on micro-mechanisms of deformation was studied. From a microstructural point of view, it was shown that the deformation modes (quantitatively and qualitatively) depend on the loading path and the heat treatment. A constitutive model is proposed to describe the effect of overhardening, under the nonproportional loading conditions, on the kinematic hardening. The predicted responses are in good agreement with experimental results.

This study is to indicate the methodology of investigating the behavior of materials in the plastic domain while bearing cyclic loading i.e. low cycle fatigue. Materials under such loading, which experience huge amount of plastic deformation, are affected by the hardening or softening effects of loading which should be taken into account in all applications and numerical simulations as well. This work investigates the methodology of obtaining the nonlinear isotropic and kinematic hardening of steel CK45. To find the parameters of the above mentioned combined nonlinear isotropic/kinematic hardening one tensile test as well as three strain-controlled low cycle fatigue tests are carried out to extract the monotonic stress/strain curve and three diagrams of hysteresis curves, respectively. Then, four parameters necessary to simulate the nonlinear isotropic/ kinematic behavior of the material are extracted by means of curve fitting technique using MATLAB software. Afterwards, the accuracy of the data extracted from the experimental tests using the proposed methodology, are verified in a finite element package, ABAQUS, through implementing two user defined subroutines UMAT written in FORTRAN. It is indicated that the computed constants draw stress-strain curves much closer to experimental responses than isotropic hardening model does.  Eventually, the numerical results acquired by simulating the behavior of the sample under cyclic loading with importing the constants, calculated via combined hardening model, to ABAQUS reflects results highly close to the experimentally obtained response of the sample. It means that the procedure used to find the constants is accurate enough and consequently the constants computed are able to be used in both ABAQUS and subroutines.

Experimental analysis can be very costly and time consuming when searching for the optimal process parameters of a new shot-peening configuration (new material, new geometry of the part…). The prediction of compressive residual stresses in shot-peened parts has been an active field of research for the past fifteen years and several finite elements models have been proposed. These models, although they give interesting qualitative results, over-estimate, most of the time, the level of the maximal compressive stresses. A better comprehension of the phenomena and of the influence of the parameters used in the model can only carry a notable improvement to the prediction of the stresses. The fact that the loading path is cyclic and is not radial led us to think that a model including kinematic hardening would be better adapted for the modelling of shot peening. In this article we present the results of a simulation of a double impact for several constitutive laws. We study the effect of the chosen constitutive law on the level of residual stresses and, in particular, we show that kinematic hardening, even identified on the same tensile curve than isotropic hardening, leads to lower stress levels as compared with isotropic hardening. Furthermore, the overall shape of the stress distribution within the depth is significantly different for the two types of hardening behaviour. Further, in order to check the modelisations, local measurements were carried on with X-ray diffraction on a large size impact and correlated with the topography of the impact.

Experiments that demonstrate the basic quantitative and qualitative aspects of the cyclic plasticity of metals are presented in Part 1. Three incremental plasticity kinematic hardening models of prominence are based on the Prager, Ziegler, and Mroz hardening rules, of which the former two have been more frequently used than the latter. For a specimen previously fully stabilized by out of phase cyclic loading the results of a subsequent cyclic nonproportional strain path experiment are compared to the predictions of the above models. A formulation employing a Tresca yield surface translating inside a Tresca limit surface according to the Mroz hardening rule gives excellent predictions and also demonstrates the erasure of memory material property.

In order to simulate mechanical fatigue phenomena under macroscopically elastic condition, the plastic stretching within a yield surface has to be described, whilst the plastic strain is induced remarkably as the stress approaches the dominant yielding state. In this study, a phenomenological plasticity model, proposed for the description of the cyclic loading behavior observed for typical carbon steels during the high-cycle fatigue subjected to stresses lower than the yield stress, is applied for the prediction of fatigue initiation life. The model is formulated based on the unconventional plasticity model and is applied for materials obeying isotropic and kinematic hardening law. The mechanical responses under cyclic loading conditions are examined briefly. Finally, the initiation life of fatigue cracking is discussed based on the proposed model with the damage counting parameter.

In this paper, a generalized anisotropic hardening rule based on the Mroz multi-yield-surface model is derived. The evolution equation for the active yield surface is obtained by considering the continuous expansion of the active yield surface during the unloading/reloading process. The incremental constitutive relation based on the associated flow rule is then derived for a general yield function. As a special case, detailed incremental constitutive relations are derived for the Mises yield function. The closed-form solutions for one-dimensional stress-plastic strain curves are also derived and plotted for the Mises materials under cyclic loading conditions. The stress-plastic strain curves show closed hysteresis loops under uniaxial cyclic loading conditions and the Masing hypothesis is applicable. A user material subroutine based on the Mises yield function, the anisotropic hardening rule and the constitutive relations was then written and implemented into ABAQUS. Computations were conducted for a simple plane strain finite element model under uniaxial monotonic and cyclic loading conditions based on the anisotropic hardening rule and the isotropic and nonlinear kinematic hardening rules of ABAQUS. The results indicate that the plastic response of the material follows the intended input stress-strain data for the anisotropic hardening rule whereas the plastic response depends upon the input strain ranges of the stress-strain data for the nonlinear kinematic hardening rule.

Being of particular interest in this work, the effect of the interaction law on the predicted non-linear overall and local behaviors of FCC polycrystals of two well-established self-consistent models is examined under uni, bi, and triaxial cyclic loading conditions. The principal difference between these models is related to their interaction laws. Comparisons between the predictions of the models are performed at the overall and local levels simultaneously. Some experimental cyclic results of two states of Waspaloy and 316L stainless steel are employed in calibrating the parameters of both models. The effects of loading complexity, aggregate type and the kinematic hardening on the polycrystal responses are investigated for each model. It is recognized that the connection between the aggregate constitution and the form of the loading paths play also an important role notably on the local responses of polycrystals.

To describe the viscoplastic behavior of materials under cyclic loading, a dislocation density-based constitutive model is developed based on the unified constitutive theory in which both the creep and plastic strain are integrated into an inelastic strain tensor. The stress evolution during cyclic deformation is caused by the mutual competition and interaction between hardening and recovery. To incorporate the physical mechanisms of cyclic deformation, the change of mobile dislocation density is associated with inelastic stain in the proposed model. The evolution of immobile dislocation density induced by strain hardening, dynamic recovery, static recovery and strain-induced recovery are simulated separately. The deterioration of yield strength following the hardening in tension (or compression) and subsequently in compression (or tension) is described by the Bauschinger effect and reduction of immobile dislocation density, the latter is induced by static- and strain-induced recovery. A kinematic hardening law based on dislocation density is proposed, both isotropic hardening and softening are described by determining the evolution of hardening parameters. The experimental data of P91 steel under different strain rates and temperatures are adopted to verify the proposed model. In general, the numerical predictions agree well with the experimental results. It is demonstrated that the developed model can accurately describe the hardening rate change, the yield strength deterioration and the softening under cyclic loading.

A phenomenological model is proposed for cyclic plasticity based on the concept of distributed elements, which is capable of reflecting microstructural behavior of real materials under multiaxial cyclic loading conditions. By investigating the detailed behavior of the model, various important phenomena and effects of materials in cyclic plasticity can be elucidated. Generalization of the model is also done to include cyclic hardening effects. A thorough understanding of these complicated response mechanisms and material properties provides useful insight and guidelines for validating analytical models and for performing experimental studies in the related areas of cyclic plasticity.

In this paper, the uniaxial loading–unloading–reloading (LUR) tensile test was conducted to determine the elastic modulus depending on the plastic pre-strain. To obtain the material parameters and parameter of Yoshida-Uemori’s kinematic hardening models, tension–compression experiments were carried out. The experimental results of the cyclic loading tests together with the numerically predicted response of the plastic behavior were utilized to determine the parameters using the Ls-opt optimization tool. The springback phenomenon is a critical issue in industrial sheet metal forming processes, which could affect the quality of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to represent a method to predict the springback. To achieve this aim, the calibrated plasticity models based on appropriate tests (cyclic loading) were implemented in commercial finite element (FE) code Ls-dyna to predict the springback in the roll forming process. Moreover, appropriate experimental tests were performed to validate the numerical results, which were obtained by the proposed model. The results showed that the hardening models and the variation of elastic modulus have significant impact on springback accuracy. The Yoshida-Uemori’s hardening represents more accurate prediction of the springback during the roll forming process when compared to isotropic hardening. Using the chord modulus to determine the reduction in elastic modulus gave more accurate results to predict springback when compared with the unloading and loading modulus to both hardening models.

Two surface theories for rate-independent plasticity have previously been shown to offer superior correlative capability in modeling material response under non-proportional loading. In this study, a class of kinematic hardening rules characterized by a decomposition of the total kinematic hardening variable is discussed. The concept of generalized image point hardening in conjunction with mulitple loading surface interpretations is presented. The ability of this class of rules to correlate experimental data from stable nonproportional cycling of Type 304 stainless steel at room temperature is examined. In addition, the proper framework for inclusion of isotropic hardening for this class of models is discussed.
