AbstractThermoplastic polymers exhibit non-isochoric behaviour during tensile and compression testing as well as particular deformations like local necking (tension) or buckling (compression). A method for the determination of Cauchy stresses from tensile and compression tests is presented, that considers the actual deformations of the test specimens. The exact geometry of the specimens in the respective present configuration is determined in photographs, which are taken continuously throughout the test. The engineering stresses at several time points are converted into Cauchy stresses using newly developed formulas in consideration of the actual specimen geometry. For validation finite element analyses of the tensile and compression tests are performed using the identified stress-strain curves. The numerical results show good agreement with the experiments for the tested polymers. Thus a method for conversion of engineering to Cauchy stresses in tensile and compression tests could be established considering the non-isochoric deformation in plasticity. With this method “true” stress-strain curves as input for finite element material models can be identified for arbitrary materials.

The paper introduces 3 types of uniaxial stress-strain relationships of concrete filled steel tube by Pan Youguang, Susantha and Saenz, and performs finite element analyses of the axial strengths of 18 CTRC columns, studies the characters of three models, and comprises between the axial strengths from FEA and existed experiments. Results show these 3 types of model are all suitable for bearing analysis, but Pan’s model is more accurate.

The feasibility of forging of AL-1050 alloy of cylindrical heatsink under warm conditions is demonstrated in the present work. The stress-strain curves and friction factor play an important role in the cylindrical heatsink forging. The purpose of forging lubrication is to reduce friction between blank and die, and to decrease resistance of metal flow to die. The stress-strain curves at different temperatures are obtained by compressing tests. The friction factor between 1050 aluminum alloy and die material are determined at different temperatures by ring compression tests with graphite lubricants. The compressing and ring compressing tests are carried out by using the computerized screw universal testing machine. The finite element method is used to investigate the forming characters of the forging process. To verify the prediction of FEM simulation in the cylindrical heatsink forging process, the experimental parameters such as stress-strain curves and fiction factor, are as the input data during analysis. Maximum forging load and effective stress distribution are determined of the heatsink forging, using the finite element analysis. Finally, the cylindrical heatsink parts are formed by the forging machine under the conditions using finite element analysis.

Strain Data

The results of inelastic finite element analyses of several uniaxial specimens used for low-cycle fatigue and cyclic plasticity testing are presented. The test specimens studied include both hourglass and uniform gage-type geometries. These results indicate that normally used hourglass specimens may significantly underestimate the strain for a given stress. Uniform gage specimens with commonly used length-to-diameter ratios are shown to provide adequate stress-strain data. Two extensively strain-gaged uniform gage specimens were tested to provide data to confirm the acceptability of the inelastic analysis methods.

Abstract The determination of the material coefficients for Ogden, Mooney-Rivlin, Peng, and Peng-Landel material models using simple ASTM D 412 tensile data is shown to be a manageable task. The application of the various material models are shown to be subject to the type and level of deformation expected, with Ogden showing the best correlation with experimental data over a large strain range for the three types of strain investigated. At low strains, all of the models showed reasonable correlation.

The objective of this article is to introduce and assess a new plate buckling analysis procedure which can be used for quick, approximate analysis of buckling loads in preliminary design. The method is applied to a range of plate edge support condition combinations including many where results are not readily available. The results obtained using the new procedure were compared against theoretical formulae available in the literature and by finite element analyses with good agreement.

Indentation Tests

A method is presented for estimating the plastic part of stress-strain curves of metal coatings, using a Brinell indentation test. The accuracy of the stress-strain curves obtained in this way is tested by using these curves in a finite element calculation and comparing the calculated results with results from experiments. Stress-strain curves are given for galvanic layers such as citrate Au, Co-Au, sulfamate Ni and also for solid annealed pure Au.

This paper is Part 2 of two papers illustrating how isochronous stress strain curves can be used to calculate creep stresses and damage for pressure vessel components. Part 1 [1], illustrated the use of isochronous stress strain curves to obtain creep stresses and damages on two simple example problems which were solved using closed form solution. In Part 2, the isochronous method is implemented in finite element analysis to determine creep stresses and damages on pressure vessel components. Various different pressure vessel components are studied using this method and the results obtained using this method is compared time explicit Omega creep model. The results obtained from the isochronous method is found to be in good agreement with the time explicit Omega creep model.
