Uniaxile tensile tests of auto-body steel sheet were performed at strain rate of 10-4 to 101s-1 and temperature of room temperature to 180°C. Strain rate and temperature sensitivity of flow stress were analyzed. It is found that the stress-strain curve is obviously heavily weighted on the temperature and strain rate. A new constitutive model was constructed and implemented into Abaqus/Explicit commercial software using user subroutine VUMAT. Verification of constitutive model shows that it has good agreement with experimental result.

300M ultrahigh strength steel has good mechanical properties. It has been widely used in the force bearing components of aircraft. In this paper, By using Gleeble1-500D thermal simulator, we studied the change regularity of stress-strain curve of 300M steel using hot compression deformation when temperature is from 800°C to1100°C, strain rate is from 0.001 S-1to 1 S-1 and the strain is 0.7.The experimental results showed that when the strain rate is constant, the flow stress and the peak stress decrease with the increase of deformation temperature. When the deformation temperature is constant, the flow stress and peak stress increase with the increase of strain rate. From the test, we got the true stress-strain curve, calculated the thermal deformation constants such as the deformation activation energy of 300M ultrahigh strength steel. Eventually, we built the thermal deformation constitutive model in hyperbolic sine form of 300M steel.

In this paper, the strain-rate dependent mechanical properties and stress-strain curve behavior of Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu (SAC387) solder is presented for a range of strain-rates at room temperature. The apparent elastic modulus, yield stress properties and stress-strain curve equation of the solder material is needed to facilitate finite element modeling work. Tensile tests on dog-bone shaped bulk solder specimens were conducted using a non-contact video extensometer system. Constant strain-rate uni-axial tensile tests were conducted over the strain-rates of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1 (s−1) at 25°C. The effects of strain-rate on the stress-strain behavior for lead-free Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu solder are presented. The tensile yield stress results were compared to equivalent yield stress values derived from nano-indentation hardness test results. Constitutive models based on the Ramberg-Osgood model and the Cowper-Symond model were fitted for the tensile test results to describe the elastic-plastic behavior of solder deformation behavior.

This work illustrates the manufacturing and tensile testing of a novel concept of honeycomb structures with hexagonal and auxetic (negative Poisson’s ratio) topology, made of shape memory alloy (SMA) core material. The honeycombs are manufactured using Nitinol ribbons having 6.40 mm of width and 0.2 mm of thickness. The ribbons were inserted in a special dye using cyanoacrilate to bond the longitudinal strips of the unit cells. The ribbons were subjected to tensile test at room temperature (martensite finish) and austenite finish temperature. Tensile tests at room temperature were performed on the honeycomb. The stress-strain curve obtained from the test on a single ribbon at room temperature was then used to develop nonlinear Finite Element beam elements using a commercial code. The beam elements were then used to model the honeycomb samples under tensile loading. Good agreement is observed between numerical nonlinear simulations and the experimental results.

An inverse method for the characterisation of the elastoplastic behaviour of materials has been studied. The method is based on spherical indentation test data and numerical analysis of the indentation process, enabling to find a characteristic stress-strain curve. This method will be appropriate for elastoplastic behaviour study, mainly on surface hardened materials, when the standard methods cannot be applied. In this work, the method was applied to annealed and quenched steels, with homogeneous properties over the cross section. The obtained results are in good agreement with those obtained from the standard tensile tests. However, if the material does not follow a linear hardening law, the elastoplastic characteristics determined by the inverse method will depend on the indentation depth. For these cases a method for the evaluation of the actual behaviour law has been improved.

An improved hydraulic servo structure testing machine has been used to conduct biaxial dynamic compression tests on eight types of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) with lateral pressure levels of 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 (the ratio of the compressive strength applied laterally to the static compressive strength of the specimen), and three strain rates of 10−4, 10−3 and 10−2 s−1. The failure mode, peak stress, peak strain, deformation modulus, stress-strain curve, and compressive toughness index of ECC under biaxial dynamic compressive stress state are obtained. The test results show that the lateral pressure affects the direction of ECC cracking, while the strain rate has little effect on the failure morphology of ECC. The growth of lateral pressure level and strain rate upgrades the limit failure strength and peak strain of ECC, and the small improvement is achieved in elastic modulus. A two-stage ECC biaxial failure strength standard was established, and the influence of the lateral pressure level and peak strain was quantitatively evaluated through the fitting curve of the peak stress, peak strain, and deformation modulus of ECC under various strain rates and lateral pressure levels. ECC’s compressive stress-strain curve can be divided into four stages, and a normalized biaxial dynamic ECC constitutive relationship is established. The toughness index of ECC can be increased with the increase of lateral pressure level, while the increase of strain rate can reduce the toughness index of ECC. Under the effect of biaxial dynamic load, the ultimate strength of ECC is increased higher than that of plain concrete.

During hot working, deformation of metals such as copper or austenitic steels involves features of both diffusional flow and dislocation motion. As such, the true stress-true strain relationship depends on the strain rate. At low strain rates (or high temperatures), the stress-strain curve displays an oscillatory behavior with multiple peaks. As the strain rate increases (or as the temperature is reduced), the number of peaks on the stress-strain curve decreases, and at high strain rates, the stress rises to a single peak before settling at a steady-state value. It is understood that dynamic recovery is responsible for the stress-strain behavior with zero or a single peak, whereas dynamic recrystallization causes the oscillatory nature. In the past, most predictive models are based on either modified Johnson-Mehl-Avrami kinetic equations or probabilistic approaches. In this work, a delay differential equation is utilized for modeling such a stress-strain behavior. The approach takes into account for a delay time due to diffusion, which is expressed as the critical strain for nucleation for recrystallization. The solution shows that the oscillatory nature depends on the ratio of the critical strain for nucleation to the critical strain for completion for recrystallization. As the strain ratio increases, the stress-strain curve changes from a monotonic rise to a single peak, then to a multiple peak behavior. The model also predicts transient flow curves resulting from strain rate changes.

A series of tensile tests at constant strain rate were conducted on tin-lead based solders with different Sn content under wide ranges of temperatures and strain rates. It was shown that the stress-strain relationships had strong temperature- and strain rate- dependence. The parameters of Anand model for four solders were determined. The four solders were 60Sn-40Pb, 40Sn-60Pb, 10Sn-90Pb and 5Sn-95Pb. Anand constitutive model was employed to simulate the stress-strain behaviors of the solders for the temperature range from 313K to 398K and the strain rate range from 0.001%sP -1 P to 2%sP -1 P. The results showed that Anand model can adequately predict the rate- and temperature- related constitutive behaviors at all test temperatures and strain rates.

The two-dimensional nanostructures such as graphene, silicene, germanene, and stanene have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. Many studies have been done on graphene, but other two-dimensional structures have not yet been studied extensively. In this work, a molecular dynamics simulation of silicene was done and stress–strain curve of silicene was obtained. Then, the mechanical properties of silicene were investigated using the proposed structural molecular mechanics method. First, using the relations governing the force field and the Lifson–Wershel potential function and structural mechanics relations, the coefficients for the BEAM elements was determined, and a structural mechanics model for silicene was proposed. Then, a silicene sheet with 65 Å × 65 Å was modeled, and Young’s modulus of silicene was obtained. In addition, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of silicene were calculated using finite element method. The results are in good agreement with reports by other papers.

Experimental and numerical analyses of a woven composite were performed in order to assess the effect of yarn path and layer shift variability on properties of the composite. Analysis of the geometry of a 12 K carbon fibre 2 × 2 twill weave at the meso- and macro-scales showed the prevalence of the yarn path variations at the macro-scale over the meso-scale variations. Numerical analysis of yarn path variability showed that it is responsible for a Young’s modulus reduction of 0.5% and CoV of 1% which makes this type of variability in the selected reinforcement almost insignificant for an elastic analysis. Finite element analysis of damage propagation in laminates with layer shift showed good agreement with the experiments. Both numerical analysis and experiments showed that layer shift has a strong effect on the shape of the stress–strain curve. In particular, laminates with no layer shift tend to exhibit a kink in the stress–strain curve which was attributed solely to the layer configuration.
