STP-PT-081: Cyclic Stress-Strain Curves vi SUMMARY Monotonic strength values of materials like Yield Strength or Ultimate Tensile Strength are usually determined with well-defined and well-established testing equipment and sample geometries. For many materials

19、, a wide database exists which accelerates statistical analyses and determination of minimum values, however, cyclic stress-strain curves do not benefit from such an established knowledgebase.

Cyclic stress-strain curves can therefore be only considered as an average description of a material. As materials can cyclic soften and cyclic harden, the relationship between m

24、onotonic and cyclic yield strength is of particular importance. The cyclic stress-strain curve for strain-controlled fatigue near zero mean stress is usually described by the following relationship: 2 =2 + (2)1 Where: =total strain range, =(representative) total stress range, E=Youngs modulus, K=cyc

25、lic strength coefficient, n=cyclic hardening exponent. STP-PT-081: Cyclic Stress-Strain Curves vii The cyclic stress range usually changes as a function of a number of cycles (hardening/softening) and therefore a “typical” stress range must be chosen. By convention, the stress range at Nf/2 is used

26、in almost all cases. Other definitions are occasionally used, but in this report the Nf/2 approach is used almost exclusively.

It is important to stress that, with this approach, only typical average values could be determined which allow an assessment of the cyclic response of a material (

Raw data created during the project and literature used is also presented and discussed with respect to eventual implementation into the ASME Materials Database. In addition to the liter

STP-PT-081: Cyclic Stress-Strain Curves 1 1 INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM Cyclic stress-strain curves describe the stress-strain behavior under cycl

35、ic loads. Usually, the cyclic stress amplitude /2 is plotted as a function of the cyclic strain amplitude /2 for a defined cycle. The fact that the stress-strain response of a material is usually cycle-dependent requires a reference cycle which can be considered as representative for the cyclic stre

36、ss-strain curve. In contrast to monotonic stress-strain curves which deliver a unique relationship between the stress and strain of a material, the cyclic stress-strain relationships may undergo cycle-dependent changes. The material can be: Cyclic hardening Cyclic softening Cyclic stable Combination

37、s of cyclic softening and cyclic hardening This means that the stress-strain relationship determined in strain fatigue tests is usually cycle dependent. Figure 1-1 shows the change of stress amplitude with a number of cycles for a low carbon steel as an example 1. Figure 1-1: Cyclic hardening-soften

Figure 1-2: Cycle dependence of stress-strain curves

39、for IN 600 (replotted from literature 2) When a cyclic stable hysteresis loop is obtained, this stabilized loop can be used as a reference. If a cyclic stable hysteresis loop is not established, the cycle at half the time to rupture (Nf/2) is taken as a reference independent of whether the material

40、is cyclic softening, cyclic hardening or shows a mixed behavior. These cycles are usually obtained from reversed strain cycling tests on a number of companion specimens, but shortcut procedures are also used by various investigators. Such shortcut methods use only a single specimen, which is cycled

41、a certain number of times or until saturation is reached. The levels of cyclic straining are stepwise increased (incremental step test). This means that cyclic pre-deformed samples are used, which can lead to artifacts in cases where cycle-dependent microstructural changes can happen. It is also wor

42、th mentioning that low cycle fatigue (LCF) is primarily crack growth from short cracks, which can also affect the behavior of pre-deformed material. The fact that materials can cyclically harden or soften makes the relationship between cyclic and monotonic curves important. A cyclic stress-strain cu

43、rve alone, without any relation to the monotonic properties, is only of very limited use for design or safety considerations. An independent choice of a cyclic stress-strain curve without reference to the monotonic behavior might cause misleading results. Cyclic softening material can appear as cycl

44、ic hardening and vice-versa (an example from ASME BPVC Section VIII/2 is given in Appendix C:). Therefore, relationships between STP-PT-081: Cyclic Stress-Strain Curves 3 monotonic and cyclic properties are required. General trends for cyclic hardening/softening of different classes of materials are

45、 given in 3. Figure 1-3 illustrates typical examples of monotonic and cyclic stress-strain curves. Austenitic matrices tend towards cyclic hardening, whereas ferritic/martensitic materials tend towards cyclic softening.

47、n Figure 1-4 and Figure 1-5. Figure 1-4 shows data for ferritic/pearlitic, martensitic, and austenitic steels. Ferritic/pearlitic steels tend to behave cyclic stable to slight cyclic softening. The martensitic steels are cyclic softening. Austenitic steels show cyclic hardening behavior, however, a

48、wide scatter of data can be seen. This will be further discussed in section 7 concerning austenitic steels. The results shown in Figure 1-5 indicate that carbon and low alloy steels start cyclic stable at low yield strength and become cyclic softening at high yield strength. These results will also
