Abstract

The main objective of the paper is the description of the behaviour and fatigue damage of inelastic solids in plastic flow processes under dynamic cyclic loadings.

A general constitutive model of elasto-viscoplastic damaged polycrystalline solids is developed within the thermodynamic framework of the rate type covariance structure with a finite set of the internal state variables. A set of the internal state variables is assumed and interpreted such that the theory developed takes account of the effects as follows: (i) plastic non-normality; (ii) plastic strain induced anisotropy (kinematic hardening); (iii) softening generated by microdamage mechanisms; (iv) thermomechanical coupling (thermal plastic softening and thermal expansion); (v) rate sensitivity.

To describe suitably the time and temperature dependent effects observed experimentally and the accumulation of the plastic deformation and damage during dynamic cyclic loading process the kinetics of microdamage and the kinematic hardening law have been modified. The relaxation time is used as a regularization parameter. The viscoplastic regularization procedure assures the stable integration algorithm by using the finite difference method. Particular attention is focused on the well-posedness of the evolution problem (the initial-boundary value problem) as well as on its numerical solutions. Convergence, consistency, and stability of the discretised problem are discussed. The Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem is formulated and conditions under which this theory is valid are examined. Utilizing the finite difference method for regularized elasto-viscoplastic model, the numerical investigation of the three-dimensional dynamic adiabatic deformation in a particular body under cyclic loading condition is presented. Particular examples have been considered, namely a dynamic, adiabatic and isothermal, cyclic loading processes for a smooth cylindrical tensile bar. The problem is assumed as axisymmetrical. The accumulation of damage and equivalent plastic deformation on each considered cycle has been obtained. It has been found that this accumulation of microdamage distinctly depends on the wave shape of the assumed loading cycle.
