Abstract
In this work, numerical simulations for predicting uni- and multi-axial ratchetting behaviors are carried out, using a polycrystal plasticity model. In this multi-scale modeling, the single crystal behavior is based on crystallographic slip (intragranular scale), whereas the polycrystal behavior is obtained from an explicit transition rule to calculate the local stresses and strains (intergranular scale). A systematic study is performed to show the effect of intergranular and intragranular hardening on the ratchetting behavior. For illustrative purposes, two examples are presented: the model is applied to simulate the experimental results from the literature for a 316 austenitic stainless steel and for a 1026 carbon steel. It was demonstrated that the polycrystalline model was successful in describing the inelastic behavior of the two considered materials adequately.
