Ductile fracture prediction using enhanced CDM model with Lode angle-dependency for titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V at room temperature

摘要

Fully coupled ductile damage model considering strength-differential (SD) effect is proposed for simulation of metal forming processes for Ti-6Al-4V. The developed constitutive equations are based on non-associative plasticity theory under thermodynamically-consistent framework. The third stress invariant is added to Hill48 criterion to capture the SD effect. Lode angle-dependent enhanced fully coupled damage model is proposed to account for the loading path sensitivity on ductile damage initiation and growth. A detailed material parameters identification procedure is presented. The proposed model is implemented into the FE code Abaqus/Explicit through user defined subroutine VUMAT. The numerically predicted results obtained with the proposed model are compared to experimental data of Ti-6Al-4V and good agreement is observed.
