Basic Kinematic Hardening Rules Applied to 304 Stainless Steel and the Advantage of Parameters Evolution

详细

Cyclic plasticity models for the description of the deformation characteristics of austenitic stainless steel 304 at a room temperature have been studied with the focus on its industrial use. The main objective of this work is to investigate the capabilities of the classical Chaboche model with four terms which is commonly used in practice, and to compare those capabilities with the same model enriched with the evolution of some kinematic hardening parameters. The incorporation of parameters evolution brings significant number of necessary parameters to be determined, compared to the classical Chaboche model with four terms. To overcome excessive number of necessary parameters, also two terms Chaboche model with parameters evolution is used. Presented paper evaluates the time and temperature independent modeling possibilities of Chaboche combined nonlinear kinematic hardening model and isotropic hardening model with von Mises yield criterion.
