Uniaxial ratcheting behaviors of Z2CN18.10 austenitic stainless steel under both tensile pre-strain (TP) and compressive pre-strain (CP) were experimentally studied at room temperature. The experimental results show that: TP restrains ratcheting strain accumulation of subsequent cycling with positive mean stress; lower level of CP is found to accelerate ratcheting strain accumulation while higher level of CP retards the accumulation. Based on the Ohno-Wang II kinematic hardening rule, rate-independent model, viscoplastic model, isotropic hardening model and a modified model were constructed to describe the ratcheting behaviors under various pre-strain conditions. All the four models gave fairly good prediction on ratcheting strains for various TP. The isotropic hardening model and modified model predicted acceptable ratcheting strain though still showed slight tendency of over prediction.

In this study, the ratcheting behaviors of pressurized Z2CN18.10 austenitic stainless steel elbow pipe influenced by the thermal aging process were experimentally investigated in controlled constant internal pressure and reversed in-plane bending after different thermal aging periods (1000 h and 2000 h) at thermal aging temperature of 500 °C. It is shown that the ratcheting behavior of pressured elbow pipe is highly affected by the thermal aging process. The evaluation of ratcheting behavior of pressured elbow pipe was performed using Chen–Jiao–Kim (CJK) kinematic hardening model as a user subroutine of ANSYS. The relationships of yield stress σs and multiaxial parameter χ with thermal aging time were proposed. Ratcheting shakedown boundary of aged elbow pipe was evaluated by CJK model with thermal aging time.

Strain Cycling

Ratcheting tests are conducted on stainless steel 304 under uniaxial, torsional, and combined axial-torsional loading. The ratcheting strain is predicted based on the constitutive theory that incorporates a modified Ohno-Wang kinematic hardening rule and Tanaka’s isotropic hardening model. The results show that the main features of the stress-strain response can be simulated with the constitutive model. The experimental and predicted ratcheting strains for nonproportional paths are found in decent correlation. Ratcheting strain depends highly on the loading path and load level, and less on cyclic hardening or softening of the material. The torsional ratcheting strain under mean shear stress with (or without) fully reversed axial strain cycling is found close to the axial ratcheting strain under equivalent mean stress with (or without) torsional strain cycling.

Strain Cycling

Multiaxial ratcheting is often simulated by use of nonlinear kinematic hardening models, while in reality materials show cyclic hardening/softening and additional hardening under nonproportional loading. The effect of isotropic hardening on ratcheting needs to be addressed in simulation. In this study, ratcheting tests are conducted on stainless steel 304 under uniaxial, torsional, and combined axial-torsional loading. The ratcheting strain is predicted based on the constitutive theory that incorporates a modified Ohno–Wang kinematic hardening rule and Tanaka’s isotropic hardening model. The results show that the main features of the stress-strain response can be simulated with the constitutive model. Ratcheting strain under axial mean stress depends highly on the loading path and load level, and the degree of cyclic changes in shear stress under torsional strain control is not as influential. The torsional ratcheting strain under mean shear stress with (or without) fully reversed axial strain cycling is found close to the axial ratcheting strain under equivalent mean stress with (or without) torsional strain cycling. In all, the experimental and predicted ratcheting strains for nonproportional paths are found in decent correlation. However, overprediction still prevails for some loading paths, and ratcheting rates deviate considerably from experimental values.

This paper studies the cyclic ratcheting for two materials under multiaxial stress state. The two materials are SUS304 austenitic stainless steel and A1070 pure aluminum. The former material is known as a material that gives strong additional hardening and the latter material shows little additional hardening under nonproportional cyclic loading. The ratcheting behavior under 12 stress-strain waveforms was extensively studied using hollow cylinder specimen. Ratcheting strain depended on the material and stress-strain waveform. Anisotropic ratcheting was found in A1070 but isotropic ratcheting was observed in SUS304 steel.

Predicting mechanical properties of metals from big data is of great importance to materials engineering. The present work aims at applying artificial neural network (ANN) models to predict the tensile properties including yield strength (YS) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) on austenitic stainless steel as a function of chemical composition, heat treatment and test temperature. The developed models have good prediction performance for YS and UTS, with R values over 0.93. The models were also tested to verify the reliability and accuracy in the context of metallurgical principles and other data published in the literature. In addition, the mean impact value analysis was conducted to quantitatively examine the relative significance of each input variable for the improvement of prediction performance. The trained models can be used as a guideline for the preparation and development of new austenitic stainless steels with the required tensile properties.

Strain Hardening Behavior

Combined axial-torsional experiments have been conducted at room temperature on thin-walled tubes to investigate the strain hardening behavior of annealed 304 stainless steel due to creep. The constant strain-rate dynamic loading (or SCISR) surfaces representing the state of material before and after creep have benn determined. It has been found that transient creep essentially causes the loading surface to undergo kinematic hardening with insignificant amount of isotropic hardening for this material. A conclusion is drawn that the loading surface hardened by transient creep is the same as that hardened by plastic deformation. This is true both for specimens with pure tension and pure torsion loading paths. The results confirm assumptions of the overstress theory of viscoplasticity.

Advantages And Disadvantages

In finite element calculation of plastic mechanics, isotropic hardening model, kinematic hardening model and mixed hardening model have their advantages and disadvantages as well as applicability area. In this paper, by use of the tensor analysis method and mixed hardening theory in plastic mechanics, the constitutive relation of 3-D mixed hardening problem is derived in detail based on the plane mixed hardening. Numerical results show that, the proposed 3-D mixed hardening constitutive relation agrees well with the test results in existing references, and can be used in the 3-D elastic-plastic finite element analysis.

Robust Process

The accurate prediction of welding distortion is an important requirement for the industry in order to allow the definition of robust process parameters without the need to perform expensive experiments. Many models have been developed in the past decades in order to improve prediction. Assumptions are made to make the models tractable; however, the consequences are rarely discussed. One example for such an assumption is the strain hardening model, which is often a choice between either kinematic or isotropic hardening. This paper presents the results of tensile tests for DP600 performed from room temperature up to one thousand degrees and for different strain-rates. In order to employ a mixed isotropic-kinematic hardening model, the fractions of each hardening contribution have been determined by means of bend testing. The welding distortion of a DP600 overlap joint has been simulated and it is shown that such a mixed-hardening model results in more accurate and reliable results.
