The plastic deformation behaviors of Weldox700E steel at strain rates ranging from 10^-4 to 6200 s^-1 are investigated by the quasistatic and dynamic uniaxial compression tests. The Weldox700E steel exhibits rate-related plastic behavior, work hardening and thermal softening behaviors. Due to the nonlinear strain rate effect of the material and the adiabatic temperature rise caused by high-speed impact compression, the properties of material are greatly affected. By improving the strain rate enhancement term and temperature term in the Johnson-Cook constitutive model, a new constitutive model was proposed to describe the dynamic mechanical behavior of Weldox700E steel. This constitutive equation was implemented into the finite element software, ABAQUS, via an explicit user material subroutine utilizing the stress update algorithm. The simulation results at different strain rates were in good agreement with the experimental data, verifying the validity of the constitutive model.展开更多
