Abstract

The possibilities of cellulose acetate as a photoplastic model material used in the uniaxial tension test were presented by the authors in Ref. 1. Empirical formulas were proposed for photoplastic stress analysis considering the effect of strain rate and temperature. In this paper, the stress-strain-optic laws derived from the uniaxial tension test were confirmed precisely under the biaxial stress field. Consequently, the biaxial stress-strain-optic laws of cellulose acetate can be represented by simply substituting the difference of the principal stress and the difference of the principal strain into the terms of the stress and the strain in the empirical formulas for the uniaxial stress state, respectively. Therefore, the empirical formulas considering the influence of strain rate were obtained for the photo-viscoelastoplastic plane-stress analysis during the usual static loading. This method was applied to an elastoplastic problem of a finite plate with a circular hole under uniaxial tension. The distribution of stress and strain, the stress-concentration factors in the elastoplastic region and the development of the plastic region were obtained experimentally taking the rate effect into account. As a result, the stress on a minimum section in a model increased as head speed increased. On the other hand, the distribution of strain, the development of the plastic region and the stress-concentration factors were almost never influenced by head speed.
