Creep Damage Model

Long-term stability and safety of the Bayer red mud (BRM) disposal field is very important for the local residents’ life, which necessitates the knowledge of its creep behavior. In order to investigate the creep behavior of BRM, a series of triaxial drained creep tests were conducted by using an improved triaxial creep apparatus. The results indicate that the creep behavior of BRM is significant with confining and deviatoric stresses being critical factors. The creep strain is in a nonlinear relationship with stress and time, and a larger deviator stress will lead to a larger creep strain. The main failure mechanism of BRM is plastic shear, accompanied by a significant compression and ductile dilatancy. Based on the test results, two well-established creep models, the Burgers creep model and Singh–Mitchell creep model, were used to comparatively analyze the creep behavior of the Bayer red mud under a certain stress level. Then, an improved Burgers creep damage constitutive model with the addition of a damage variable was proposed, whose parameters were also analyzed in detail. The comparison of the calculated values of the creep model and the experimental values shows that the proposed creep damage model can better describe the instant elastic deformation, attenuation creep, steady-state creep, and accelerated creep stages of the Bayer red mud.

Actual Stress

In the creep tests, stress is no longer a constant and increases gradually under the influence of damage occurring during accelerating creep, which is a slow-loading process rather than a conventional creep. With the accumulation of the damage over time, the actual stress increases greatly. The increased actual stress not only generates loading strain but also causes the steady creep rate to rise. This coupling possibly explains why salt rock presents nonlinear accelerating characteristics at the accelerating creep stage. In this work, the constraint of the present creep concept was overcome by assuming that the acceleration creep phase is a coupling process of loading and creeping. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the total strain in this phase is equal to the sum of loading strain and creeping strain. A new nonlinear constitutive equation for creep was then derived, and the mechanisms underlying the nonlinear accelerating characteristics emerging at the stage of accelerating creep are further explained. A step-loading experiment on salt rock was performed for a period of six months. The characteristics of accelerating creep appeared in the last step of loading. This new nonlinear creep damage constitutive model was used to fit and analyze the test data. Obtained results show that this model fits well to these test data and also favorably represents the nonlinear characteristics of accelerating creep, thus supporting the model’s validity.

The Face

The effect of adhesive interlining on the creep behavior of a woven fabric in the bias direction was investigated. Three-element viscoelastic models were used to approximate the creep behavior of a face fabric and adhesive interlining. The creep model of a laminated fabric comprised a six-element model in which two three-element models are connected in parallel with the three-element model. Creep tests were carried out using face fabrics, adhesive interlinings, and their laminated fabrics without and with bonding adhesive interlining by hanging samples in the 45° bias direction under their own weight for 7 days. Creep strains of face fabrics bonded with adhesive interlining were found to be weaker than those of the face fabrics. The creep behavior for the face and interlining fabrics could be approximated using the three-element viscoelastic model with appropriate parameters. The experimental creep behavior of a laminated fabric without bonding was similar to the theoretical behavior. However, the experimental creep of laminated fabrics with bonding interlining was less than the calculated creep, owing to the increase in stiffness due to the adhesive. By revising the six-element model with the strains just after hanging and for 2 days, it was possible to predict the creep strain over 7 days.

Resistivity Variation

A new directional low-frequency Alternating Current Potential Drop (ACPD) technique has been developed for continuous in-situ monitoring of creep strain and damage in alloys. The sensor relies on a modified ACPD technique that measures simultaneously both values of resistance in the axial and lateral directions using a square electrode configuration. The technique monitors the variation in the ratio of the measured axial and lateral resistances, therefore can efficiently separate the mostly isotropic common part of the resistivity variation caused by reversible temperature variations from the mostly anisotropic differential part caused by direct geometrical and indirect material effects of creep. Initially, this ratio can be considered proportional to the axial creep strain, while at later stages, the resistance ratio accelerates due to the formation of directional discontinuities such as preferentially oriented grain boundary cavities and micro-cracking in the material. This ACPD technique has been applied to a series of accelerated creep tests on 2.25CrMoV Steel at 650 °C. The results are presented and the application of the method for online component monitoring is discussed.

AbstractThe creep characteristics of frozen rock and soil are crucial for construction safety in cases of underground freezing. Uniaxial compression tests and uniaxial creep tests were performed at temperatures of − 10, − 15, − 20, and − 25 °C for silty clay used in Nantong metro freezing construction to investigate the effect law of the stress–strain curves and creep curves. However, owing to the complex effects of factors such as temperature and ground pressure, the mechanical properties of underground frozen silty clay are uncertain. The Burgers creep damage model was established by using an elastic damage element to simulate the accelerated creep stage. The traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm was improved using the inertia weight and the fuzzy random coefficient. The creep parameters of the Burgers damage model were optimized using the improved fuzzy random particle swarm algorithm at different temperatures and pressure levels. Engineering examples indicated that the optimized creep model can more effectively characterize the creep stages of frozen silty clay in Nantong metro freezing construction. The improved fuzzy random particle swarm algorithm has wider engineering applicability and faster convergence than the traditional algorithm.

Damage Theory

P91-type steel is widely used for the high-temperature pipe work components in advanced power plants. The creep behavior of the P91-type steel has been studied by many researchers during the past years. Since it is well known that the creep behavior of P91-type steel cannot be satisfactorily described by a simple, Arrhenius-type, power-law constitutive model. While Norton-Bailey creep is a deviatoric temperature-dependent creep model, furbished with a time-hardening creep model, which is the most common model for modeling primary and secondary creep together, and Kachanov-Rabotnov creep damage theory described with Norton creep model can be used to model tertiary creep. Both of them based on Norton creep constitutive equation. In this paper, based on the Norton-Bailey creep law and Kachanov-Rabotnov creep damage theory, a new combined constitutive model has been developed, in which the creep and damage function are both considered as nonlinear variables. The damage parameters in the model have clear physical meaning and can be determined from the benchmark experiment. The results indicated that this combined damage model was applicable to describe the full damage evolution for P91-type steel.

A linear viscoelastic plastic creep model of mica-quartzose schist is established by using the method of establishing combined-linear-component model based on triaxial creep test. The micro-structural changes of mica-quartzose schist during triaxial creep process are observed by using the scanning electron microscope test, based on that, the relation of macro-stress and macro-strain with porosity and damage variable are established through statistical damage theory and simplified mechanical model respectively, the creep damage variable is obtained by further derivation on the basis of above study. The creep damage variable is simplified according to the whole creep process curve, substitutes the simplified creep damage to the estabilished linear viscoelastic plastic creep model of mica-quartzose schist, considering the change of modulus and viscosity during creep process, a viscoelastic plastic damage model of mica-quartzose schist is established. The model parameters are got by segment fitting, the good consistency of the test curves and the fitted curves shows the right and reasonable of the creep model, it also shows that the model can well describe the nonlinear accelerated creep stage. Sensitivity analysis shows that parameter m has greater influence on the accelerated creep deformation than parameter a.

Creep Damage Model

The experimental results show that the creep properties of the rocks are affected by the initial damage, and the damage evolution also has a significant impact on the time-dependent properties of the rocks during the creep. However, the effects of the initial damage and the damage evolution are seldom considered in the current study of the rocks' creep models. In this paper, a new nonlinear creep damage model is proposed based on the multistage creep test results of the sandstones with different damage degrees. The new nonlinear creep damage model is improved based on the Nishihara model. The influences of the initial damage and the damage evolution on the components in the Nishihara model are considered. The creep damage model can not only describe the changes in three creep stages, namely, the primary creep, the secondary creep, and the tertiary creep, but also reflect the influence of the initial damage and the damage evolution on creep failure. The nonlinear least squares method is used to determine the parameters in the nonlinear creep damage model. The consistency between the experimental data and the predicted results indicates the applicability of the nonlinear damage model to accurately predict the creep deformation of the rocks with initial damage.

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.
