Instrumented indentation is widely used to probe the elastic and plastic properties of engineering materials. Finite Element Method (FEM) has been widely used for numerical simulation of indentation tests on bulk and film material in order to analyze its deformation response. This study proposed an improved technique to determine the stress-strain curve of bulk material. FEM in conjunction with an abductive network is used to predict the stress-strain relationship of bilinear elastic-plastic material from the nanoindentation test’s force-displacement curve.

ABSTRACTThe determination of plastic properties of metallic materials by nanoindentation requires the analysis of the indentation process and the evaluation methods. Particular effects on the nanoscale, like the indentation size effect or piling up of the material around the indentation, need to be considered. Nanoindentation experiments were performed on conventional grain sized (CG) as well as on ultrafine-grained (UFG) copper and brass. The indentation experiments were complemented with finite element simulations using the monotonic stress-strain curve as input data. All indentation tests were carried out using cube-corner and Berkovich geometry and thus different amount of plastic strain was applied to the material, according to Tabors theory. We find an excellent agreement between simulations and experiments for the UFG materials from which a representative strain of εB ≈ 0.1 and εcc ≈ 0.2 is determined. With these data, the slope of the stress-strain curve is predicted for all materials down to an indentation depth of 800 nm.

Depth Curve

The engineering stress–strain curve is one of the most convenient characterizations of the constitutive behavior of materials that can be obtained directly from uniaxial experiments. We propose that the engineering stress–strain curve may also be directly converted from the load–depth curve of a deep spherical indentation test via new phenomenological formulations of the effective indentation strain and stress. From extensive forward analyses, explicit relationships are established between the indentation constraint factors and material elastoplastic parameters, and verified numerically by a large set of engineering materials as well as experimentally by parallel laboratory tests and data available in the literature. An iterative reverse analysis procedure is proposed such that the uniaxial engineering stress–strain curve of an unknown material (assuming that its elastic modulus is obtained in advance via a separate shallow spherical indentation test or other established methods) can be deduced phenomenologically and approximately from the load–displacement curve of a deep spherical indentation test.

The stress-strain curve of a material is usually obtained from the load-displacement curve measured in a tensile test, assuming no strain localisation up to maximum load. However, strain localisation and fracture phenomena are far from being completely understood. Failure and strain localisation on plane tensile specimens has been studied in this work. A deeply instrumented experimental benchmark on steel specimens has been developed. Surface strain fields have been recorded throughout the tests, using an optical extensometer. This allowed characterisation of the strain localisation and failure processes. Tests have been numerically modelled for a more detailed analysis. Preliminary results show a substantial influence of geometrical specimen defects on the strain localisation phenomena that may be critical on the stress-strain curves obtained and in the failure mechanisms.

The advanced high strength (AHS) steels, for example, dual phase (DP) steels, transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) steels and complex (CP) steels principally exhibit multiphase microstructure features. Thus, mechanical behavior of the constituent phases significantly affects the resulting overall properties of such AHS steels. Novel material characterization techniques on micro- and nano-scale have become greatly more important. In this work, stress-strain response of the DP steel grade 1000 was determined by using the Nanoindentation testing. The DP steel showed the microstructure containing finely distributed martensite islands of about 50% phase fraction in the ferritic matrix. The nano-hardness measurements were firstly performed on each individual phase of the examined steel. In parallel, finite element (FE) simulations of the corresponding nano-indentation tests were carried out. Flow curves of the single ferritic and martensitic phases were defined according to a dislocation based theory. Afterwards, the load and penetration depth curves resulted from the experiments and simulations were compared. By this manner, the proper stress-strain responses of both phases were identified and verified. Finally, the effective stress-strain curve of the investigated DP steel could be determined by using 2D representative volume element (RVE) model.

The Impact

The dynamic compression of a billet by the impact of a falling weight is analyzed with reference to the general plastic properties of pure metals. Theoretical results are compared with the results of published experimental data for pure lead. It is shown that, for lead, the form of the stress-strain curve is little influenced by changes in strain rate during deformation. The strain-hardening coefficient is however found to be strongly influenced by the temperature changes associated with the adiabatic deformation. The position of the maximum in the stress-strain curve is sensitive to the value of the initial strain rate. A method is suggested whereby isothermal stress-strain relationships may be extended to include the effects of adiabatic thermal softening.

Versus Strain

Instrumented indentation testing is a technique widely used in different materials to evaluate the penetration depth in function of the indenter load. Considering Berkovich indenter, this methodology has been used to determine mechanical properties such as hardness, Young modulus and a stress versus strain curve of the elastic-plastic behaviour under compression of the tested materials. However, the implementation of this technique to evaluate mechanical properties and also its results have still brought doubts on research areas. Nowadays, the use of a numerical methodology able to evaluate the stress and strain fields during indentation cycle can lead to a more secure interpretation. The aim of this work was to simulate the Berkovich indentation testing and to propose a methodology to extract the stress-strain curve through experimental and numerical analyses. The obtained numerical results for the load-displacement curve were quite similar to the experimental curve presented in the literature.

Elastic Perfectly Plastic

This work is to address the creep analysis for components at elevated temperatures based on isochronous stress-strain curve and the elastic-perfectly plastic material model through numerical analyses. Numerical results presented that the creep deformation is very sensitive to the target inelastic strain chosen for analysis. A small inelastic strain, corresponding to a small yield stress, can cause very conservative result for the case studied. Moreover, the target inelastic strain, corresponding to the minimum inelastic strain along with the given path, is different from each other for various internal pressures.
