Validation of the plasticity models introduction of hardening laws and introduction of hardening laws October 25: Concepts October 27: Formulations Lecturer: Alireza Sadeghirad

Contents: Introduction of the concepts in 1D. Extension of the concepts to 2D and 3D. Investigation of some special cases and important issues in 3D. Assumptions: I am talking about the rate-independent plasticity. It means loading/unloading is slow. Temperature is almost constant. I am talking about the associative plasticity, in which it is assumed that the flow direction (returning path to the yield surface) is perpendicular to the yield surface.

Validation vs. Verification Uniaxial stress – strain diagram: Is the elastic model a validated model for this example? (=Does the model represent the real world with enough accuracy?) An elastic material has a unique, natural, elastic reference state to which it will return when the deformation-causing forces are removed. The deformation between this elastic reference state and the currents state is reversible. There is a one-to-one relationship between stress and strain. The material does not have memory. Validation vs. Verification Validation: Does our (mathematical) model represents the real world with enough accuracy? Verification: Does our (computational) code/software represents the mathematical model with enough accuracy?

The material has memory. Uniaxial stress – strain diagram: Is the elastic-perfect plastic model a validated model? (=Does the model represent the real world with enough accuracy?) There is a stress state, called yield stress, which loading beyond that includes permanent (plastic) deformation. A yielded material will unload along a curve that is parallel to the initial elastic curve. Perfectly Plastic Hardening Law assumes the stresses above yield are constant. There is no one-to-one relationship between stress and strain. The material has memory. Loading/unloading behavior

Uniaxial stress – strain diagram: Is the elastic model a validated model for this test? Is the elastic-perfect plastic model a validated model for this test? These questions are not the right (complete) ones ! We should specify: for which material? under which conditions? Note that we already assume that the loading/unloading is slow, and temperature is constant.

Validation of elastic and elastic-perfect plastic models: . Many metals exhibit nearly linear elastic behavior at low strain magnitudes. Rubbers exhibit Hyper-elastic behavior, and they remain elastic up to large strain values (often up to 100% strain and beyond). For metals, the yield stress usually occurs at .05% - .1% of the material’s Elastic Modulus. Based on my knowledge, there is almost no material showing the exact elastic-perfect plastic behavior. Perfectly Plastic can be used as an approximation which may be appropriate for some design processes.

Typical uniaxial stress–strain diagram for an elasto-plastic material Loading/unloading behavior New yield stress Initial yield stress Perfect plastic: it is constant. Hardening: it increases. Softening: it decreases. Elastic strain is proportional to stress. During the plastic loadaing, by increasing total strain: The plastic strain increases. What about the elastic strain? Plastic strain Total plastic strain

Three types of plastic behaviors are considered here: perfect plastic isotropic hardening kinematic hardening

Ideally plastic: Loading/Unloading behavior

Isotropic hardening: Loading/Unloading behavior

Kinematic hardening: Loading/Unloading behavior This is more common behavior in material plasticity, for example in metals. When the material has already been yielded, it yields earlier in the opposite direction. This effect is referred to as the Bauschinger effect.

Validation of isotropic and kinematic hardening: . Isotropic hardening is commonly used to model drawing or other metal forming operations. For many materials, the kinematic hardening model gives a better representation of loading/unloading behavior than the isotropic hardening model. For cyclic loading, however, the kinematic hardening model cannot represent either cyclic hardening or cyclic softening.

Combined hardening: isotropic + kinematic . The initial hardening is assumed to be almost entirely isotropic, but after some plastic straining, the elastic range attains an essentially constant value (that is, pure kinematic hardening). In this model, there is a variable proportion between the isotropic and kinematic contributions that depends on the extent of plastic deformation. Validation of combined hardening Combined Hardening is good for simulating the shift of the stress-strain curve apparent in a cyclical loading (hysteresis).

Multi-axial hardening behavior (2D): load path Is this 1D stress-strain diagram related to isotropic or kinematic hardening? What is the similar 2D to this diagram? Isotropic hardening: size of the yield surface changes; location of the yield surface does not change Kinematic hardening: size of the yield surface does not change; location of the yield surface changes Combined hardening: size of the yield surface changes; location of the yield surface changes

This is a pressure-independent model. Multi-axial hardening behavior (3D) – von Mises (or J2) model: for a given stress state Radial component: r = (constant) x (equivalent shear) r z Hydrostatic component: z = (constant) x (pressure) In the von Mises model, only equivalent shear is important in yielding. This is a pressure-independent model.

in terms of stress components in terms of principal stresses in terms of stress invariants What is the relation between in above equation and axial yield stress in uniaxial tension test?

Equivalent shear at uniaxial tension test: In the uniaxial stress tension test, which is a common test to determine the yield stress: Stress: Stress at yield point: Equivalent shear at uniaxial tension test: Equivalent shear at yield point: in von Mises (J2) model and axial yield stress in uniaxial tension test are the same.

The von Mises (J2) model is dependent only on equivalent stress (=equivalent shear). Thus, we can think about that like a 1D model. Ideally plastic: Isotropic hardening: q q load load q load Kinematic hardening

This case will not be plastic at all because contains no shear at all. Consider the following prescribed deformation (strain-control) cases: Is the stress constant during the plastic loading in the perfect plastic in 3D (assume associative von Mises (J2) plasticity and small deformations)? Uniaxial Strain Pure Shear Yes / No Yes / No Hydrostatic Tension / Compression This case will not be plastic at all because contains no shear at all. Yes / No

Uniaxial Strain q p Assuming elastic behavior: step-by-step loading K : bulk modulus 2G: shear modulus p q step-by-step loading yield slope: 2G Trial stress: It should be returned slope: 2G/K Trial stress: Good Stress is changing It is not a helpful diagram for our question. Which diagram will be helpful? Trial stress: Good

How can we calculate the changes in stress during the plastic loading? Total changes in strain during each step (load increment) contains two parts: elastic and plastic. Changes in stress = (Elasticity Tensor) X (Elastic part of changes in strain) We do not have any changes in stress when there is no elastic part in changes in strain during plastic loading. I’ll talk about the formulations later. When will the stress be constant during the plastic loading? Which conditions are required? Stress is constant if each load step (increment) leads to changes only in equivalent shear not in pressure. In this case, stress path during returning to yield surface coincides the stress path during the initial elastic stress increment. p q yield

Pure Shear q p Assuming elastic behavior: step-by-step loading yield slope: 2sqrt(3)G Trial stress: It should be returned Trial stress: Good Stress is constant Trial stress: Good The whole changes in strain during the plastic loading is plastic. There is no elastic strain.

Is the stress constant during the uniaxial stress loading after yielding? Assuming elastic behavior: p q yield Trial stress: It should be returned NO slope: 3 Trial stress: Good What is going on? Something is wrong in this slide. What is the wrong point here? Stress is changing Trial stress: Good YES In uniaxial stress case, because of boundary conditions, the stress is always of the above form even during the plastic loading. It means that , and after yielding i.e. stress in constant.

q If we assume that the whole changes in strain is elastic, the stress path should be like this. How can we know this is the right path after yielding? Actually we do not know. yield slope: 3 For calculate trial stress: Stress increment = (Elasticity Tensor)x(Total strain Increment) p

Microscopic interpretation of plasticity and hardening: The motion of dislocations (or other imperfections like porosity in geomaterials) allows plastic deformation to occur. Hardening is due to obstacles to this motion; obstacles can be particles, precipitations, grain boundaries. stress strain

Simply showing the effects of hardening in the yield function: Ideally plastic: Isotropic hardening: Kinematic hardening: Combined: I will present the more general forms in the next slides.

= Elastoplastic modulus (tensor) Solving plasticity governing equations: During plastic loading: What we need from a plasticity model to be introduced to the host code, which solves the equations of motion (EOMs)? What should be the contribution from a plasticity model in the host code? The answer is simple: A relationship between stress increment and strain increment. The goal of solving plasticity equations, is to obtain this relationship. = Elastoplastic modulus (tensor) In the next slides, the plasticity equations are solved in some special 1D and 3D cases.
