高温下 TC4 合金的黏塑性本构模型研究

TC4 alloy is widely used in the high temperature environment. This paper proposed an ununified viscoplastic constitutive model according to the uniaxial creep experiment and high temperature tensile experiment of TC4 alloy. The inelastic strain rate was decomposed into two parts: creep strain rate and plastic strain rate. The creep strain was calculated by multiaxial ductility exhaustion creep damage law, and the plastic strain was get from the yield function containing the damage and the kinematic hardening effect. The implicit stress integration algorithm and the consistent tangent modulus of this model were derived. The material constants of the proposed model were determined by using genetic algorithm. The proposed constitutive model was compiled in a UMAT subroutine of finite element software Abaqus and 3D eight nodes isoparametric brick element was employed to simulate the creep and the tensile behavior of TC4 alloy. Form the result, the proposed constitutive model can predict the three stages of creep curves and the softening stage of tensile curves accurately.
