Experimental Evaluation Criteria for Constitutive Models of Time Dependent Cyclic Plasticity

摘要

Notched members were tested at temperatures far above those recorded till now. Simulation of the notch root stress response was accomplished to establish notch stress-strain behavior. Cyclic stress-strain profiles across the net-section were recorded and on-line direct notch strain control was accomplished. Data are compared to three analysis techniques with good results. The objective of the study is to generate experimental data that can be used to evaluate the accuracy of constitutive models of time dependent cyclic plasticity.
