The J ep -integral differs from Rice’s J-integral in that the free energy density rather than the stress working density is employed to define energy-momentum tensor. The J ep -integral is proved to be path-dependent regardless of incremental plasticity and deformation plasticity. The J epintegral possesses clearly clear physical meaning: (1) the value J ep tip evaluated on the infinitely small contour surrounding the crack tip represents the crack tip energy dissipation; (2) when the global steadystate crack growth condition is approached, the value of J ep farss calculated along the boundary contour equals to the sum of crack tip dissipation and bulk dissipation of plastic zone.

The main reason for their high load-bearing ability is the multi-scale hierarchy. It is important to have a method for measuring the energy absorbed during the nanoscale deformation of mineralized tissues. The objective of this study was to use a combination of nanoindentation and elastic-plastic mechanics techniques to measure the damage resistance of peritubular and intertubular dentin, based on the energy consumed in the plastic deformation regime and the volume created by the indents. The control materials were soda-lime glass, gold, and poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA). Plastic deformation energy was calculated from the plastic part of load-displacement curves. The mean values of peritubular dentin and intertubular dentin were 3.8 × 10<sup>9</sup>, and 5.2 × 10<sup>9</sup> J/m<sup>3</sup>, respectively, compared to glass, PMMA, and gold which were 3.3 × 10<sup>7</sup>, 1.3 × 10<sup>9</sup>, and 3.1 × 10<sup>9</sup> J/m<sup>3</sup>, respectively. This method can be applied to study the resistance of mineralized tissues or organic/inorganic hybrid materials to deformation at the nanoscale.展开更多

The relationships among flow stress, strain rate, and deformation temperature were analyzed, and the deformation activation energy and stress exponent were calculated. Microstructure evolution of the alloy under different conditions was examined. The results indicated that the maximum value of the flow stress increased with the decrease of deformation temperature or the increase of strain rate. Under the present deformation conditions, dynamic recrystallization (DRX) occurred in the alloy, which was the main softening mechanism during deformation at elevated temperature. The deformation temperature and strain had significant effects on the microstructure of the alloy.展开更多

The results show that the AI sheets possess the remarkable characteristic of steady state flow stress when they are deformed in the temperature range of 350-500℃ at strain rates within the range of 0.01-10.0s^-1. A hyperbolic sine relationship is found to correlate well the flow stress with the strain rate, and an Arrhenius relationship with the temperature, which implies that the process of plastic deformation at elevated temperature for this material is thermally activated. Compared with the AI pieces prepared by no or conventional melt-treatment, hot deformation activation energy of AI sheets prepared by high-efficient melt-treatment is the smallest ( Q= 168.0kJ/mol), which reveals that the hot working formability of this material is very better, and has directly to do with the effective improvement of its metallurgical quality.展开更多

The micro structure evolution shows the pre-existing austenite grain boundaries constitute the principal nucleation sites for dynamic recrystallization (DRX), and the initial austenite grain size affects the grain size of DRX slightly. The kinetic mathematical model of DRX of 35CrMo is: XDRX=1-exp(-3.23-2.28) and Ddyn = 2.252× 10Z-0.22.展开更多

Firstly, crystal plasticity finite element(CPFE) analysis is performed to calculate dislocation density and stored deformation energy distribution during the plastic deformation. A modified phase field(PF) model is then established by extending the continuum field method to consider both stored energy and local interface curvature as driving forces of grain boundary migration. An interpolation mapping approach is adopted to transfer the stored energy distribution from CPFE to PF efficiently. This modified PF model is implemented to a hypothetical bicrystal firstly for verification and then the coupled CPFE-PF framework is further applied to simulating the 2D synthetic polycrystalline microstructure evolution in annealing process of deformed AA3102 aluminum alloy.Results show that the nuclei with low stored energy embedded within deformed matrix tend to grow up, and abnormal large grains occur when the deformation is close to the critical plastic strain, attributing to the limited number of recrystallized nuclei and inhomogeneity of the stored energy.展开更多

DRX ...The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior of Nb-Ti microalloyed steels was investigated by isothermal single compression tests in the temperature range of 900-1 150 ℃ at constant strain rates of 0.1-5 s^-1. DRX was retarded effectively at low temperature due to the onset of dynamic precipitation of Nb and Ti carbonitrides, resulting in higher values of the peak strain. An expression was developed for the activation energy of deformation as a function of the contents of Nb and Ti in solution as well as other alloying elements. A new value of corrective factor was determined and applied to quantify the retardation produced by increase in the amount of Nb and Ti dissolved at the reheating temperature. The ratio of critical strain to peak strain decreases with increasing equivalent Nb content. In addition, the effects of Ti content and deformation conditions on DRX kinetics and steady state grain size were determined. Finally, the kinetics of dynamic precipitation was determined and effect of dynamic precipitation on the onset of DRX was clarified based on the comparison between precipitate pinning force and recrystallization driving force.展开更多

The TE and FE processes were successfully performed on AA1050 alloy samples at room temperature. To simulate the above mentioned processes, finite element analysis was carried out using the commercial elasto-plastic finite element analysis ABAQUS/Explicit Simulation. It is shown that load requirement for the TE process is lower than that for the FE process. The equivalent plastic strain calculated by the FEA proved that higher values of strain are imposed to the sample in the TE process. The strain distribution for the TE sample at the final stage of extrusion shows smoother strain gradient in comparison with the one produced by the FE process.展开更多

Flow resistance curves during hot-deformation were obtained, and strain rate sensitivities and activation energies for plastic deformation were calculated using the power law. It is found that the addition of Al and Si clearly increases the peak stresses for the present alloys, especially at 950℃. But Mn has a minor effect on the stress-strain curves and activation energy when its content varies from 15 mass% to 22 mass% for the present alloys.展开更多

Microhardness variation was examined along the depth of the de- formation layer. Microstructural characteristics of the surface at the TWIP steel SMATed for 90 min were observed and analyzed by optical microscope, x-ray diffraction, transmission and high-resolution electron microscope. The re- sults show that the orientation of austenite grains weakens, and a-martensite transformation occurs during SMAT. During the process of SMAT, the deformation twins generate and divide the austenite grains firstly~ then a-martens- ite transformation occurs beside and between the twin bundles~ after that the martensite and austenite grains rotate to accommodate deformation, and the orientations of martensite and between martensite and residual austenite increase; lastly the randomly oriented and uniform-sized nanocrystallir^e layers are formed under continuous deformation.展开更多

The results show that the alloy at 760 ℃ possesses lower stacking fault energy, and the stacking fault of alloy increases with increasing temperature. The defor- mation mechanism of alloy during creep at 760 ℃ is 7' phase sheared by 〈110〉 super-dislocations, which may be decomposed to form the configuration of Shockley partials plus super-lattice intrinsic stacking fault, while the deformation mechanism of alloy during creep at 1070 ℃ is the screw or edge super- dislocations shearing into the rafted 7' phase. But during creep at 7(50 and 980 ℃, some super- dislocations shearing into 7' phase may cross-slip from the {111} to {100} planes to form the K-W locks with non-plane core structure, which may restrain the dislocations slipping to enhance the creep resis- tance of alloy at high temperature. The interaction between the Re and other elements may decrease the diffusion rate of atoms to improve the microstructure stability, which is thought to be the main reason why the K-W locks are to be kept in the Re-containing superalloy during creep at 980 ℃.展开更多

Firstly, crystal plasticity finite element(CPFE) analysis is performed to calculate dislocation density and stored deformation energy distribution during the plastic deformation. A modified phase field(PF) model is then established by extending the continuum field method to consider both stored energy and local interface curvature as driving forces of grain boundary migration. An interpolation mapping approach is adopted to transfer the stored energy distribution from CPFE to PF efficiently. This modified PF model is implemented to a hypothetical bicrystal firstly for verification and then the coupled CPFE-PF framework is further applied to simulating the 2D synthetic polycrystalline microstructure evolution in annealing process of deformed AA3102 aluminum alloy.Results show that the nuclei with low stored energy embedded within deformed matrix tend to grow up, and abnormal large grains occur when the deformation is close to the critical plastic strain, attributing to the limited number of recrystallized nuclei and inhomogeneity of the stored energy.

文摘The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior of Nb-Ti microalloyed steels was investigated by isothermal single compression tests in the temperature range of 900-1 150 ℃ at constant strain rates of 0.1-5 s^-1. DRX was retarded effectively at low temperature due to the onset of dynamic precipitation of Nb and Ti carbonitrides, resulting in higher values of the peak strain. An expression was developed for the activation energy of deformation as a function of the contents of Nb and Ti in solution as well as other alloying elements. A new value of corrective factor was determined and applied to quantify the retardation produced by increase in the amount of Nb and Ti dissolved at the reheating temperature. The ratio of critical strain to peak strain decreases with increasing equivalent Nb content. In addition, the effects of Ti content and deformation conditions on DRX kinetics and steady state grain size were determined. Finally, the kinetics of dynamic precipitation was determined and effect of dynamic precipitation on the onset of DRX was clarified based on the comparison between precipitate pinning force and recrystallization driving force.

文摘The apparent activation energy for deformation(Q)and strain rate sensitivity(m)of GH4586 superalloy are calculated and the variation trend is reasonably explained by the microstructure observations.Constitutive modelling of this superalloy is established and the processing maps at different strains are constructed.The results show that the Q value is in the range of 751.22−878.29 kJ/mol.At a temperature of 1060°C,strain rate of 0.001 s^(−1),and strain of 0.65,the m value of GH4586 superalloy reaches a maximum of 0.42.The optimal processing parameter of GH4586 superalloy is at a deformation temperature of 1050°C and a strain rate of 0.001 s^(−1).The domains of flow instability notably expand with increasing strain during high temperature deformation of GH4586 superalloy.

文摘The capability of the torsion extrusion (TE) process as a severe plastic deformation (SPD) method was compared with the conventional forward extrusion (FE) process. The TE and FE processes were successfully performed on AA1050 alloy samples at room temperature. To simulate the above mentioned processes, finite element analysis was carried out using the commercial elasto-plastic finite element analysis ABAQUS/Explicit Simulation. It is shown that load requirement for the TE process is lower than that for the FE process. The equivalent plastic strain calculated by the FEA proved that higher values of strain are imposed to the sample in the TE process. The strain distribution for the TE sample at the final stage of extrusion shows smoother strain gradient in comparison with the one produced by the FE process.
文摘In this paper, based on the finite deformation S-R decomposition theorem, the definition of the body moment is renewed as the stem of its internal and external. The expression of the increment rate of the deformation energy is derived and the physical meaning is clarified. The power variational principle and the complementary power variational principle for finite deformation mechanics are supplemented and perfected.
文摘The hot-deformation behavior of Fe-Mn-C twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steel was investigated by conducting hot compression tests within a recommended hot rolling temperature range at various strain rates. Flow resistance curves during hot-deformation were obtained, and strain rate sensitivities and activation energies for plastic deformation were calculated using the power law. It is found that the addition of Al and Si clearly increases the peak stresses for the present alloys, especially at 950℃. But Mn has a minor effect on the stress-strain curves and activation energy when its content varies from 15 mass% to 22 mass% for the present alloys.

文摘A nanocrystalline layer was synthesized on the surface of TWIP steel samples by surface mechanical attri- tion treatment (SMAT) under varying durations. Microhardness variation was examined along the depth of the de- formation layer. Microstructural characteristics of the surface at the TWIP steel SMATed for 90 min were observed and analyzed by optical microscope, x-ray diffraction, transmission and high-resolution electron microscope. The re- sults show that the orientation of austenite grains weakens, and a-martensite transformation occurs during SMAT. During the process of SMAT, the deformation twins generate and divide the austenite grains firstly~ then a-martens- ite transformation occurs beside and between the twin bundles~ after that the martensite and austenite grains rotate to accommodate deformation, and the orientations of martensite and between martensite and residual austenite increase; lastly the randomly oriented and uniform-sized nanocrystallir^e layers are formed under continuous deformation.

文摘The influence of temperatures on the stacking fault energies and deformation mechanism of a Re- containing single crystal nickel-based superalloy during creep at elevated temperatures was investigated by means of calculating the stacking fault energy of alloy, measuring creep properties and performing contrast analysis of dislocation configuration. The results show that the alloy at 760 ℃ possesses lower stacking fault energy, and the stacking fault of alloy increases with increasing temperature. The defor- mation mechanism of alloy during creep at 760 ℃ is 7' phase sheared by 〈110〉 super-dislocations, which may be decomposed to form the configuration of Shockley partials plus super-lattice intrinsic stacking fault, while the deformation mechanism of alloy during creep at 1070 ℃ is the screw or edge super- dislocations shearing into the rafted 7' phase. But during creep at 7(50 and 980 ℃, some super- dislocations shearing into 7' phase may cross-slip from the {111} to {100} planes to form the K-W locks with non-plane core structure, which may restrain the dislocations slipping to enhance the creep resis- tance of alloy at high temperature. The interaction between the Re and other elements may decrease the diffusion rate of atoms to improve the microstructure stability, which is thought to be the main reason why the K-W locks are to be kept in the Re-containing superalloy during creep at 980 ℃.

文摘A linearization method and an engineering approach for the geometric nonlinear aeroelastic stability analysis of the very flexi- ble aircraft with high-aspect-ratio wings are established based on the little dynamic perturbation assumption.The engineering practicability of the method is validated by a complex example.For a high-altitude long-endurance unmanned aircraft,the nonlinear static deformations under straight flight and the gust loads are calculated.At the corresponding nonlinear equilibrium state,the complete aircraft is linearized dynamically and the vibration modes are calculated considering the large deformation effects.Then the unsteady aerodynamics are calculated by the double lattice method.Finally,the aeroelastic stability of the complete aircraft is analyzed.The results are compared with the traditional linear calculation.The work shows that the geometric nonlinearity induced by the large structural deformation leads to the motion coupling of the wing chordwise bending and the torsion,which changes the mode frequencies and mode shapes.This factors change the aeroelastic coupling relationship of the flexible modes leading to the decrease of the flutter speed.The traditional linear method would give not only an imprecise flutter speed but also a possible dramatic mistake on the stability.Hence,for a high-altitude long-endurance unmanned aircraft with high-aspect-ratio wings,or a similar very flexible aircraft,the geometric nonlinear aeroelastic analysis should be a necessary job in engineering practice.
