Calibration of Hardening Rules for Cyclic Plasticity
Authors
Abstract:
In the realm of multi-axial ratcheting, a step by step mathematical approach is developed for the parameter determination of decomposed kinematic hardening rules. For this purpose, key characteristics are mathematically derived for these hardening rules under multi-axial loading. These characteristics are then utilized to develop expressions which relate the loading history to the accumulated plastic strain. Unlike the calibration techniques available in the literature, this new method does not include trail and error analyses to fit the simulation results to the experimental data. The proposed method is illustrated through a numerical example. The results not only demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach, but also indicate that simple hardening rules, if calibrated accordingly, can be much more efficient than what has been shown before.

Constitutive Model for Multi-laminate Induced Anisotropic Double Hardening Elastic-plasticity of Sand
A constitutive multi-laminate based elastic-plastic model developed to be capable of accounting induced anisotropic behavior of granular material such as sand. The fabric feature or grain orientation characteristic effects through medium are considered in a rational way under any complex stress path, including cyclic loading. The salient feature of the developed model is a non-associative on pl...
full textA Strain Range Dependent Cyclic Plasticity Model
Hysteresis loop curves are highly important for numerical simulations of materials deformation under cyclic loadings. The models mainly take account of only the tensile half of the stabilized cycle in hysteresis loop for identification of the constants which don’t vary with accumulation of plastic strain and strain range of the hysteresis loop. This approach may be quite erroneous particularly ...
full textInfluence of hardening on the cyclic behavior of laminate microstructures in finite crystal plasticity
We investigate the cyclic behavior of laminate microstructures in finite-strain crystal plasticity and the resulting stress-strain response, based on a variational, incremental description of the microstructure evolution. The nonconvex free energy density in multiplicative singleand multi-slip plasticity gives rise to the formation of fine-scale deformation structures, experimentally observed a...
full textOn a simple cyclic plasticity modeling with implicit kinematic hardening restoration
This paper presents a fully three-dimensional plastic constitutive modeling framework suitable for the prediction of cyclic loading at large number of cycles. It can require only one yield surface and it is motivated by a simple rheological model where a restoration of the kinematic hardening is introduced. The classical kinematic hardening rules are then simply adapted leading to time-dependen...

We demonstrate cyclic strain hardening and frequency-dependent fatigue life in electrodeposited nanocrystalline Ni subjected to tension–tension cyclic deformation. These observations are rationalized through mechanistic arguments based on the exhaustion of dislocation sources in the early stages of cyclic loading and on the domination of diffusive processes during later stages. 2005 Acta Materi...
full textRevisiting the thermodynamics of hardening plasticity for unsaturated soils
A thermodynamically consistent extension of the constitutive equations of saturated soils to unsaturated conditions is often worked out through the use of a unique ’effective’ interstitial pressure, accounting equivalently for the pressures of the saturating fluids acting separately on the internal solid walls of the pore network. The natural candidate for this effective interstitial pressure i...
