Characterization of the Creep Deformation and Rupture Behavior of DS GTD-111 Using the Kachanov–Rabotnov Constitutive Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Creep deformation and rupture experiments are conducted on samples of the Ni-base superalloy directionally solidified GTD-111 tested at temperatures between 649°C and 982°C and two orientations (longitudinally and transversely oriented). The secondary creep constants are analytically determined from creep deformation experiments. The classical Kachanov–Rabotnov model for tertiary creep damage is implemented in a general-purpose finite element analysis (FEA) software. The simulated annealing optimization routine is utilized in conjunction with the FEA implementation to determine the creep damage constants. A comparison of FEA and creep deformation data demonstrates high accuracy. Using regression analysis, the creep constants are characterized for temperature dependence. A rupture prediction model derived from creep damage evolution is compared with rupture experiments. DOI: 10.1115/1.4003111

Analytical Method to Determine the Tertiary Creep Damage Constants of the Kachanov-rabotnov Constitutive Model
The classic Kachanov-Rabotnov isotropic creep damage constitutive model has been used in many situations to predict the creep deformation of high temperature components. Typically, the secondary creep behavior is determined by analytical methods; however, the tertiary creep damage constants are found using a mixture of trial and error and numerical optimization. These methods require substantia...
متن کاملAn anisotropic tertiary creep damage constitutive model for anisotropic materials
When an anisotropic material is subject to creep conditions and a complex state of stress, an anisotropic creep damage behavior is observed. Previous research has focused on the anisotropic creep damage behavior of isotropic materials but few constitutive models have been developed for anisotropic creeping solids. This paper describes the development of a new anisotropic tertiary creep damage c...
متن کاملModeling the Temperature Dependence of Tertiary Creep Damage of a Ni-Based Alloy
To capture the mechanical response of Ni-based materials, creep deformation and rupture experiments are typically performed. Long term tests, mimicking service conditions at 10,000 h or more, are generally avoided due to expense. Phenomenological models such as the classical Kachanov–Rabotnov (Rabotnov, 1969, Creep Problems in Structural Members, North-Holland, Amsterdam; Kachanov, 1958, “Time ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Temperature-Dependent, Anisotropic Tertiary Creep Damage
Directionally-solidified (DS) Ni-base superalloys are commonly applied as turbine materials to primarily withstand creep conditions manifested in either marine-, airor landbased gas turbines components. The thrust for increased efficiency of these systems, however, translates into the need for these materials to exhibit considerable strength and temperature resistance. Accurate prediction of cr...
متن کاملCreep Crack Growth Simulation of Ni-base Superalloy
The purpose of this study is to develop a numerical approach to simulate the creep cracking of a Ni-base superalloy. The approach is based in continuum damage mechanics (CDM) and uses the classic Kachanov-Rabotnov constitutive equations for creep deformation and damage evolution. Creep damage takes the form of defects such as microcracks, cavities, voids, etc. A numerical crack growth algorithm...
