Description:
The objective was to develop unified constitutive equations which can model a variety of nonlinear material phenomena observed in Rene 80 at elevated temperatures. A constitutive model was developed based on back stress and drag stress. The tensorial back stress was used to model directional effects; whereas, the scalar drag stress was used to model isotropic effects and cyclic hardening or softening. A flow equation and evolution equations for the state variables were developed in multiaxial form. Procedures were developed to generate the material parameters. The model predicted very well the monotonic tensile, cyclic, creep, and stress relaxation behavior of Rene 80 at 982 C. The model was then extended to 871, 760, and 538 C. It was shown that strain rate dependent behavior at high temperatures and strain rate independent behavior at the lower temperatures could be predicted very well. A large number of monotonic tensile, creep, stress relation, and cyclic experiments were predicted. The multiaxial capabilities of the model were verified extensively for combined tension/torsion experiments. The prediction of the model agreed very well for proportional, nonproportional, and pure shear cyclic loading conditions at 982 and 871 C.
