The laws of the deformation behavior of metals, determined by carrying out standardized uniaxial tensile tests are studied. The distribution of various strength class metals by strain resistance is analyzed. It is taken into account that in the thermodynamic aspect the deformation process is dissipative effect, therefore, the deformation work, determined by the area of the tension diagram, serves as basis for assessing of the metals deformability criteria. It is found that the normalized specific work of deformation increases linearly with increasing strength. In the applied aspect, the numerical values of the compliance criterion can be used to predict the behavior of various strength class materials during mechanical processing (metal forming and cutting) or operation.

This paper is devoted to the study of the laws of the deformation behavior of metals, determined by carrying out standardized uniaxial tensile tests. The distribution of various strength grade metals by strain resistance was analyzed. It was taken into account that in the thermodynamic aspect the deformation process is a dissipative effect. In that regard, the magnitude of deformation work, determined by the area of the tension diagram, serves as a basis for assessing the deformability criteria of metals. It was found, that the normalized specific work of deformation linearly increases with strength. As well as it was established that localization of plastic flow is related directly to the characteristics of the tension diagram under solid deformation. In the applied aspect, the numerical values of the compliance criterion can be used to predict the materials behavior of different strength grade during mechanical processing (metal forming and cutting) or operation.

AbstractA thorough understanding of hot deformation behavior plays a vital role in determining process parameters of hot working processes. Firstly, uniaxial tensile tests have been performed in the temperature ranges of 150 °C–600 °C and strain rate ranges of 0.0001–0.01s−1 for analyzing the deformation behavior of ASS 304 and ASS 316. The phenomenological-based constitutive models namely modified Fields–Backofen (m-FB) and Khan–Huang–Liang (KHL) have been developed. The prediction capability of these models has been verified with experimental data using various statistical measures. Analysis of statistical measures revealed KHL model has good agreement with experimental flow stress data. Through the flow stresses behavior, the processing maps are established and analyzed according to the dynamic materials model (DMM). In the processing map, the variation of the efficiency of the power dissipation is plotted as a function of temperature and strain rate. The processing maps results have been validated with experimental data.

Lightweighting materials (e.g., advanced high strength steels, aluminum alloys etc.) are increasingly being used by automotive companies as sheet metal components. However, accurate material models are needed for wider adoption. These constitutive material data are often developed by applying biaxial strain paths with cross-shaped (cruciform) specimens. Optimizing the design of specimens is a major goal in which finite element (FE) analysis can play a major role. However, verification of FE models is necessary. Calibrating models against uniaxial tensile tests is a logical first step. In the present study, reliable stress-strain data up to failure are developed by using digital image correlation (DIC) technique for strain measurement and X-ray techniques and/or force data for stress measurement. Such data are used to model the deformation behavior in uniaxial and biaxial tensile specimens. Model predictions of strains and displacements are compared with experimental data. The role of imperfections on necking behavior in FE modeling results of uniaxial tests is discussed. Computed results of deformation, strain profile, and von Mises plastic strain agree with measured values along critical paths in the cruciform specimens. Such a calibrated FE model can be used to obtain an optimum cruciform specimen design.

Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique gives possibility to observe deformation process in many applications including self-piercing riveting (SPR) hybrid joint. The hybrid SPR joint consists of simple SPR joint made of two adherends, steel tubular rivet (total length of 5 mm) and an adhesive. The adhesive was applied before piercing process. For specimen preparation two different aluminum alloys were used: 2024 and 5005 (2mm thickness both) with tensile strength 400 and 160MPa, respectively. For better understanding of joint forming process and to allow DIC strains observation during the joint creation, a special holder was designed with precisely polished die. The tests were performed by application of the 100kN servo-hydraulic machine, which recorded time, load, displacement and was synchronized with the DIC system. The joint forming process was carried out with 2 mm/min constant speed. During piercing process rivet and upper surface of the adherend were observed and the major strain states were estimated. The uniaxial tensile tests of single lap joints (SLJ) up to the final failure were performed and the displacements and the strains were recorded. In particular the rivet deformation was observed also during the whole loading process. The hybrid SPR joints are very effective, because the load capacity and energy absorption increase more than 1.5 times in comparison to the simple SPR joints.

 The objective of this work was to investigate the effects of material anisotropy on the yielding and hardening behavior of 2024T351 aluminum alloy using isotropic and anisotropic yield criteria. Anisotropy may be induced in a material during the manufacturing through processes like rolling or forging. This induced anisotropy gives rise to the concept of orientation-dependent material properties such as yield strength, ductility, strain hardening, fracture strength, or fatigue resistance. Inclusion of the effects of anisotropy is essential in correctly predicting the deformation behavior of a material. In this study, uniaxial tensile tests were first performed in all three rolling directions, L , T  and S , for smooth bar specimens made from hot rolled plate of Al2024 alloy. The experimental results showed that the L - and T -directions yielded higher yield strengths and a greater percentage of elongation before fracture than the S -direction. Subsequently, finite element analysis of tensile specimens was performed using isotropic (von Mises) and anisotropic (Hill) yield criteria to predict the onset of yielding and hardening behaviors during the course of deformation. Hill's criterion perfectly fitted with the test data in the S -direction, but slightly underestimated the yield strength in L -direction. The results indicated that the Hill yield criterion is the most suitable one to predict the onset of yielding and hardening behaviors for 2024T351 aluminum alloy in all directions.

Deformation behavior and precipitation features of an Al–Cu alloy are investigated using uniaxial tensile tests at intermediate temperatures. It is found that the true stress drops with the decreased strain rate or the increased deformation temperature. The number of substructures and the degree of grain elongation decrease with the raised temperature or the decreased strain rate. At high temperatures or low strain rates, some dynamic recrystallized grains can be found. The type of precipitates is influenced by the heating process before hot tensile deformation. The content and size of precipitates increase during tensile deformation at intermediate temperatures. As the temperature increases over 200 °C, the precipitation process (Guinier Preston zone (G.P. zones)→θ′′ phase→θ′ phase) is enhanced, resulting in increased contents of θ′′ and θ′ phases. However, θ′′ and θ′ phases prefer to precipitate along the {020}Al direction, resulting in an uneven distribution of phases. Considering the flow softening degree and the excessive heterogeneous precipitation of θ′′ and θ′ phases during hot deformation, the reasonable strain rate and temperature are about 0.0003 s−1 and 150 °C, respectively.

AbstractWe used molecular dynamics (MD) methods to study the deformation behavior of metallic alloy crystal nanowires of pure Cu, NiCu alloy and NiAu alloy, under high rates of uniaxial tensile strain, ranging from 5* 108/s to 5* 10/s. These nanowires are just about 2 nm thick and hence cannot sustain dislocations, instead we find that deformation proceeds through twinning and coherent slipping mechanisms. NiAu has a 13% size mismatch whereas NiCu only 2.5%. As a result the critical strain rate at which the “nanowire crystals” flow like a “liquid” is 100 times smaller for NiAu. We also calculated the elastic constants at each strain state for all strain rates to identify the relation between mechanical “shear” instability and deformation process.
