An extension of the constitutive viscoplastic model of Meric and Cailletaud is presented. The new model
accounts for coupling of plasticity and viscoplasticity to describe the rate dependence at low and moderate
temperatures. The model contains two boundaries: an elastic one and a viscoplastic one. Between the
boundaries, the only contribution to yielding is the rate dependent viscoplastic mechanism. Once the viscoplastic
boundary is reached, an additional rate independent flow mechanism becomes active. However, the extended
model is not able to predict properly both creep and long-term relaxation tests simultaneously. Therefore, a
deformation-induced softening is assumed, which is supposed to mainly affect static recovery.
The model has been calibrated with the mechanical tests on a single crystal nickel-basis superalloy. The uniaxial
tests have been carried out in the temperature interval 600°C – 1100°C in [001], [011] and [111] specimens.
The predicted creep, relaxation and non-isothermal cyclic tests exhibit reasonable agreement with the
experimental observations.
A computationally efficient solution scheme is presented for the mechanical problems whose formulations include the Kuhn–Tucker or Signorini–Fichera conditions. It is proposed to reformulate these problems replacing inequalities in these conditions by equations with respect to new unknowns. The solutions of the modified problems have simple physical meanings and determine uniquely the unknowns of the original problems. The approach avoids application of multi-valued operators (inclusions or inequalities) in formulation of the problems. Hence, the modified formulations are suitable for numerical analysis using established powerful mathematical methods and corresponding solvers developed for solving systems of non-linear equations.
To demonstrate the advantages of the proposed approach, it is applied for solving problems in two different areas: constitutive modeling of single-crystal plasticity and mixed boundary value problems of elastic contact mechanics with free boundaries. The original formulations of these problems contain respectively the Kuhn–Tucker and Signorini–Fichera conditions. A problem of the former area is integrated using an implicit integration scheme based on the return-mapping algorithm. The derived integration scheme is free of any update procedure for identification of active slip systems. A problem of the latter area is reduced to solution of non-linear integral boundary equations (NBIEs). Numerical examples demonstrate stability and efficiency of the solution procedures and reflect the mathematical similarities between the both non-linear problems.
A phase field model of brittle fracture has been developed to simulate the Hertzian crack induced by penetration of a rigid sphere to an isotropic linear-elastic half-space. The fracture formation is regarded as a diffusive field variable, which is zero for the intact material and unity if there is a crack. Crack growth is assumed to be driven by a strain invariant. The numerical implementation is performed with the finite element method and an implicit time integration scheme. The mechanical equilibrium and the phase field equations are solved in a staggered manner, sequentially updating the displacement field and the phase field variable. Numerical examples demonstrate the capability of the model to reproduce the nucleation and growth of the Hertzian cone crack.
A crystallographic constitutive model is developed, which accounts for both rate-sensitive and rate-insensitive flow. Single-crystal plasticity and viscoplasticity are the limiting cases of the model, so that it properly reflects the material response over a wide temperature range. A non-linear dynamic recovery is included to properly describe ratchetting. We provide a robust integration scheme based on generalization of the return-mapping algorithm and of the procedure for active set search.
The implicit integration and consistent tangent are implemented through the UMAT subroutine in the ABAQUS finite element program. The capability of the model to account for both high and low strain rates is demonstrated in numerical examples. Finally, the stability of integration scheme and quadratic convergence of the global NewtonRaphson equilibrium iterations are demonstrated on the example of a notched bar under tension.
Simulation of Mechanical Behaviour in a Single-Crystal Nickel-Basis Superalloy at High Temperature

The onset of plasticity in a single crystal C60 fullerite was investigated by nanoindentation on the (111) crystallographic plane. The transition from elastic to plastic deformation in a contact was observed as pop-in events on loading curves. The respective resolved shear stresses were computed for the octahedral slip systems ⟨011¯¯¯⟩{111}, supposing that their activation resulted in the onset of plasticity. A finite element analysis was applied, which reproduced the elastic loading until the first pop-in, using a realistic geometry of the Berkovich indenter blunt tip. The obtained estimate of the C60 theoretical shear strength was about 1/11 of the shear modulus on {111} planes.
Die Analyse der Lebensdauer von Bauteilen unter thermomechanischer Ermüdung (TMF) erfordert ein geeignetes Stoffgesetz, welches in der Lage ist, zyklische Plastizität die Abhängigkeit der Spannungsantwort nach der Dehnrate, Kriechen und Spannungsrelaxation temperaturabhängig zu beschreiben und ein Lebensdauermodell, welches in Abhängigkeit von der örtlich aufgelösten Spannungs- und Verformungsgeschichten eine Schätzung der Anzahl der Zyklen bis zum Anriss liefern kann.
