Abstract In order to investigate compressive mechanical behaviors of rock materials after different heating-cooling treatments, in this paper, a series of uniaxial compressive experiments are carried out on red sandstone samples after various heating temperature (from 25℃ to 1000℃) and water cooling treatments (10℃) to obtain evolution laws of mechanical property. The evolution laws of peak strength, elastic modulus, primary wave velocity and micro-structure are analyzed in details. And for better reflecting compressive stress-strain behaviors of red sandstone after heating-cooling treatments, based on Caputo variable-order fractional calculus, considering strain correlation and constant strain loading rate, we propose a novel variable-order fractional constitutive model to describe stress-strain behaviors of red sandstone samples after heating-cooling treatments. The validation of proposed model is well verified and a comparative study between proposed variable-order fractional constitutive model and constant-order fractional constitutive model is performed to highlight the advantage of proposed model. The evolutions of mechanical characteristics are revealed by presented varying-order function related to strain and the influence of fitting parameters on stress-strain behaviors are also discussed for deeply comprehending compressive mechanical mechanism of red sandstone after heating-cooling treatments.

This study develops a general temperature-dependent stress–strain constitutive model for polymer-bonded composite materials, allowing for the prediction of deformation behaviors under tension and compression in the testing temperature range. Laboratory testing of the material specimens in uniaxial tension and compression at multiple temperatures ranging from −40 ∘C to 75 ∘C is performed. The testing data reveal that the stress–strain response can be divided into two general regimes, namely, a short elastic part followed by the plastic part; therefore, the Ramberg–Osgood relationship is proposed to build the stress–strain constitutive model at a single temperature. By correlating the model parameters with the corresponding temperature using a response surface, a general temperature-dependent stress–strain constitutive model is established. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed model are validated using several independent sets of testing data and third-party data. The performance of the proposed model is compared with an existing reference model. The validation and comparison results show that the proposed model has a lower number of parameters and yields smaller relative errors. The proposed constitutive model is further implemented as a user material routine in a finite element package. A simple structural example using the developed user material is presented and its accuracy is verified.

The hot deformation behavior of SiC/6168Al composite was studied by means of hot compression tests in the temperature range of 300-450 °C and strain rate range of 0.01-10 s-1. The constitutive model was developed to predict the stress-strain curves of this composite during hot deformation. This model was established by considering the effect of the strain on material constants calculated by using the Zenter-Hollomon parameter in the hyperbolic Arrhenius-type equation. It was found that the relationship of n, α, Q, lnA and ε could be expressed by a five-order polynomial. The stress-strain curves obtained by this model showed a good agreement with experimental results. The proposed model can accurately describe the hot flow behavior of SiC/6168Al composite, and can be used to numerically analyze the hot forming processes.

Constitutive models for soils are usually adopted in numerical method to analyze the behavior of geotechnical structures. This study performs a series of consolidated-undrained triaxial tests to establish the stress-strain curve of clay. A constitutive model that considers continuous strain hardening-softening is proposed based on the results of triaxial tests. Triaxial test results reveal that undrained shear strength linearly increases with an increase in consolidated pressure , the normalized undrained shear strength is about 0.52 not only for this study but also for the other two cases around Taipei Basin. Due to undrained condition, an associated flow rule between plastic strain increment and stress tensor is adopted. As accumulative plastic strain or/and consolidated pressure change, the mobilized undrained shear strength also changes. All parameters needed for the proposed model can be expressed as a function of undrained shear strength Su, The mobilized undrained shear strength for the proposed model during strain hardening-softening can be in term of accumulative plastic strain. This model can calculate the stress-strain curves of clayed soils accurately.

In the engineering fields of mining, tunneling, slopes, and dams, rocks are usually subject to the coupling effect of impact load and wet-dry cycles. The deformation rule of rocks under the coupling effects is a symbolic mechanical property, which lays the foundation for the design and evaluation in the rock engineering. In this paper, the coupling damage was classified as mesodamage induced by wet-dry cycles and macrodamage induced by impact load, and the loading rate effect was considered as the load damage. Besides, a constitutive model of coupling damage was concluded based on Lemaitre’s strain equivalent assumption. Consequently, the validity of the model was verified by a series of dynamic compression tests of red sandstone. Results indicated that the proposed damage constitutive model can definitely describe the dynamic stress-strain curves of red sandstone after wet-dry cycles and impact load. The evolution of coupling damage curves showed that wet-dry cycle damage plays a dominant role in the elastic deformation stage, while the yield failure stage is controlled by the load damage in which the loading rate cannot be ignored. Parametric study was also performed to analyze the effect of parameters on dynamic stress-strain curves. The proposed mode has the simple and reliable operation with few parameters and can efficiently predict the long-term deformation behavior of rocks subject to multiple wet-dry cycles.

With the rapid development of microelectronics and nanoelectronics, Moore law has significantly slowed down and More than Moore based system in packaging (SiP) is expected to be more and more important, at least for next one to two decades. Mechanical behaviors of interconnect materials such as solders are critical for yield in processes and reliability in testing and operation. Based on the framework of crystal plastic theory and continuum damage mechanics, an anisotropic constitutive model coupled with damage was developed to describe the deformation behaviors of Sn-rich solder. In the proposed model, the inelastic shear rate function was presented by hyperbolic sinusoidal form and power law form. For the damage evolution law, the total shear strain was chosen as the damage function variable. The proposed model was implemented into the general finite element software ABAQUS by forward Euler integration procedure. Some simulation examples were performed to verify the proposed model by comparing the simulation results with the experiments at uniaxial tensile conditions with SnAgCuSb solder chosen as the Sn-rich solder. The tensile stress-strain curves of the simulation results agreed well with the experiments at small strain under different temperatures and strain rates. The simulated stress-rupture stages showed reasonable accuracy with the experiments under four representative tensile conditions. Different tensile stress-strain curves of single grains with orientation of (0-0-0)°, (0-45-0)°, and (0-90-0)° were obtained under the same loading conditions, with an inverse relationship between the tensile strength and elongation. This relationship was in accordance with a referable literature. All these results indicate that the proposed model can describe the deformation behaviors of SnAgCuSb solder well under the tensile conditions in consideration of the mechanical anisotropy and the damage evolution.

In this paper, a total of 60 concrete cylinders 30 cm in diameter and 60 cm in length confined by steel jackets of different thicknesses and different types of lateral steel reinforcements are tested to obtain the stress–strain curves of the cylinders. A constitutive model is proposed to describe the behavior of concrete confined by steel reinforcement, steel jackets, and both steel reinforcement and steel jackets used to retrofit and strengthen reinforced concrete structures. The confined concrete stress–strain curve of the proposed model is divided into two regions: the curve in the first region is approximated using a second-order polynomial equation, and that in the second region using an nth-order power-law equation, where n is a function of the unconfined concrete strength and the lateral confining stress. The results of the experiments show that different types of lateral steel reinforcement contribute greatly to the compressive strength of concrete cylinders confined by the reinforcement. Comparing the stress–strain curves of the uniaxial test with that from the proposed model, we conclude that the proposed model for concrete confined by a steel jacket and lateral steel reinforcement can predict the experimental results very well.Key words: constitutive model, steel jacket, confined concrete.

Based on the obtained experimental results, the features of stress-strain behavior of the metallic foam were discussed firstly in this paper. Then, in the framework of 2M1C visco-plasticity constitutive model, a cyclic constitutive model was proposed to simulate the stress-strain responses under monotonic and cyclic compression. In proposed model, plastic strain is divided into two parts, i.e., plastic strain of matrix metal and plastic strain of voids structure, which are associated with relative density. Additionally, a kinematic hardening rule of yield surface center is used to describe ratchetting effect during cyclic loading. The simulated stress-strain responses of aluminum foam are in a good agreement with the experimental ones.

Nanoporous Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) are widely used in aerospace, military industry, medical and health and other fields. More and more attention has been paid to its mechanical properties. In particular, when the size of the pores is reduced to the nanometer level, the effect of the surface effect of the nanoporous material on the mechanical properties of the SMA will increase sharply, and the residual strain of the SMA material will change with the nanoporosity. In this work, the expression of Young’s modulus of nanopore SMA considering surface effects is first derived, which is a function of nanoporosity and nanopore size. Based on the obtained Young’s modulus, a constitutive model of nanoporous SMA considering residual strain is established. Then, the stress–strain curve of dense SMA based on the new constitutive model is drawn by numerical method. The results are in good agreement with the simulation results in the published literature. Finally, the stress-strain curves of SMA with different nanoporosities are drawn, and it is concluded that the Young’s modulus and strength limit decrease with the increase of nanoporosity.

AbstractTo describe uncured rubber melt flow, a modified Phan–Thien–Tanner (PTT) model was proposed to characterize the rheological behavior and a viscoelastic one-dimensional flow theory was established in terms of incompressible fluid. The corresponding numerical method was constructed to determine the solution. Rotational rheological experiments were conducted to validate the proposed model. The influence of the parameters in the constitutive model was investigated by comparing the calculated and experimental viscosity to determine the most suitable parameters. The uncured rubber viscosity was 3–4 orders larger than that of plastic and did not have a visible Newtonian region. Compared with the Cross-Williams-Landel-Ferry (Cross-WLF) and original PTT models, the modified PTT model can describe the rheological characteristics in the entire shear-rate region if the parameters are set correctly.

The general fractional operator shows its great predominance in the construction of constitutive model owing to its agility in choosing the embedded parameters. A generalized fractional viscoelastic–plastic constitutive model with the sense of the k-Hilfer–Prabhakar ( k-H-P) fractional operator, which has the character recovering the known classical models from the proposed model, is established in this article. In order to describe the damage in the creep process, a time-varying elastic element [Formula: see text] is used in the proposed model with better representation of accelerated creep stage. According to the theory of the kinematics of deformation and the Laplace transform, the creep constitutive equation and the strain of the modified model are established and obtained. The validity and rationality of the proposed model are identified by fitting with the experimental data. Finally, the influences of the fractional derivative order [Formula: see text] and parameter k on the creep process are investigated through the sensitivity analyses with two- and three-dimensional plots.
