Abstract The study of anisotropic deformation behavior of material plays a key role in optimizing the hot working process parameters. Further, trustworthiness of Finite Element (FE) analysis in hot working condition is highly dependent on accurate input of mechanical properties and anisotropic yield parameters. In present work, two different anisotropic yield criteria, namely; Hill 1948 and Barlat 1989 are developed from Room Temperature (RT) to 500 °C and different slow strain rate conditions (0.01, 0.001 and 0.0001 s−1) for Inconel 718 alloy. First, uniaxial tensile test carried out from RT to 500 °C with an interval of 100°C and at quasi-static strain rate conditions at different orientation of a sheet (0°, 45° and 90°). Based on the tensile test data, extended Von-Mises isotropic criterion i.e. Hill 1948 and Barlat 1989 yield criterion were developed at different conditions. The predictability of yield criteria has been verified using yield loci, variation of anisotropic coefficient and yield stresses. The various static parameters such as correlation coefficient, relative error and standard deviation are considered to compare the yield criteria. Based on the comparison, Barlat 1989 yield criterion shows good in agreement with experimental data.

The present work deals with the microwave-assisted compression moulding of high-density polyethylene (HDPE)-based composites. In the present work, 20 wt% of reinforcement in the form of kenaf and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) was used to fabricate HDPE/kenaf and HDPE/MWCNT polymer composites. The mechanical characterizations of the microwave-processed composites were carried out in terms of uniaxial tensile test with different strain rate, multistep stress relaxation, flexural and impact test. The uniaxial tensile test revealed that the tensile modulus of microwave-processed four-layered HDPE/kenaf polymer composite was 35.2% higher than that of HDPE/MWCNT polymer composite. The HDPE/MWCNT polymer composite showed a minimum of 1.25 GPa and a maximum of 4.7 GPa of elastic modulus when tested at different strain rate. The impact energy absorbed by the HDPE/kenaf polymer composite (1.055 J) was 81.12% higher than the HDPE/MWCNT polymer composite (0.582 J).

The effects of temperature and strain rate of hot-forged recycled aluminium alloys AA6061 are examined via uniaxial tensile test implementations in this paper. The tests are conducted at elevated temperatures of 100 °C, 200 °C and 300 °C, at two different strain rates of 10−4 s−1 and 10−3 s−1. The tensile behaviour and damage characteristic are analysed in terms of stress-strain curves and microstructural analysis, respectively. The microstructure and fracture surface of such materials are observed using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Optical Microscope (OM). The flow stress of recycled AA6061 increases with increasing strain rate and decreases with increasing temperature. ImageJ software is used to quantify void characteristics. It is observed that the quantity and size of the micro-voids are strain-rate sensitive. This is due to the growth and coalescence of the micro-voids. The OM analysis shows the gap between the grain boundaries becomes wider with the increasing temperature that affects the strength of the material. The outcome of this work gives valuable information before the appropriate applications, especially in automotive and aerospace fields, can be established. It can be agreed that there is still a need for improved recycling methods to fulfil the needs in the required applications, as shown by its primary resources. It is a massive challenge and an obvious drawback in such materials due to the degradation of material’s properties related to damage.

The aim of this collaborative study was to measure mechanical properties of 14MoV67-3 steel taken from small sections of material machined in-situ from an operating high pressure collector pipe after different operating lifetimes (from 0h to 186 000h) at elevated temperatures (540°C). Conventional methods of measuring mechanical properties of materials, such as the uniaxial tensile test require relatively large test samples. This can create difficulties when the amount of material available for testing is limited. One way of measuring mechanical properties from small quantities of material is using micro tensile test samples. In this work, micro-samples with a total length of 7.22mm were used. Digital Image Correlation method (DIC) was employed for the strain measurements in a uniaxial tensile test. This paper shows that there is measurable difference in the yield, ultimate tensile strength and elongation to failure as a function of the plant operating conditions. This work demonstrates, therefore, a ‘semi-invasive’ method of determining uniaxial stress-strain behaviour from plant components.

The paper is devoted to highlighting the potential application of the quantitative imaging technique through results associated with work hardening, strain rate and heat generated during elastic and plastic deformation. The aim of the research presented in this article is to determine the relationship between deformation in the uniaxial tensile test of samples made of 1-mm-thick nickel-based superalloys and their change in temperature during deformation. The relationship between yield stress and the Taylor–Quinney coefficient and their change with the strain rate were determined. The research material was 1-mm-thick sheets of three grades of Inconel alloys: 625 HX and 718. The Aramis (GOM GmbH, a company of the ZEISS Group) measurement system and high-sensitivity infrared thermal imaging camera were used for the tests. The uniaxial tensile tests were carried out at three different strain rates. A clear tendency to increase the sample temperature with an increase in the strain rate was observed. This conclusion applies to all materials and directions of sample cutting investigated with respect to the sheet-rolling direction. An almost linear correlation was found between the percent strain and the value of the maximum surface temperature of the specimens. The method used is helpful in assessing the extent of homogeneity of the strain and the material effort during its deformation based on the measurement of the surface temperature.

Electronics in automotive underhood and downhole drilling applications may be subjected to sustained operation at high temperature in addition to high strain-rate loads. SAC solders used for second level interconnects have been shown to experience degradation in high strain-rate mechanical properties under sustained exposure to high temperatures. Industry search for solutions for resisting the high-temperature degradation of SAC solders has focused on the addition of dopants to the alloy. In this study, a doped SAC solder called SAC-Q solder have been studied. The high strain rate mechanical properties of SAC-Q solder have been studied under elevated temperatures up to 200°C. Samples with thermal aging at 50°C for up to 6-months have been used for measurements in uniaxial tensile tests. Measurements for SAC-Q have been compared to SAC105 and SAC305 for identical test conditions and sample geometry. Data from the SAC-Q measurements has been fit to the Anand Viscoplasticity model. In order to assess the predictive power of the model, the computed Anand parameters have been used to simulate the uniaxial tensile test and the model predictions compared with experimental data. Model predictions show good correlation with experimental measurements. The presented approach extends the Anand Model to include thermal aging effects.
