Abstract
In this paper, a viscoplastic constitutive model previously proposed by the authors was extended to apply to the cyclic deformation analysis of the modified 9Cr-1Mo steel. A series of cyclic deformation tests were conducted on modified 9Cr-1Mo steel at various temperatures, including those under anisothermal conditions. Furthermore, cyclic evolution of state variables used in the authors' constitutive model was experimentally measured. Based on the test results, cyclic softening behavior depending on the temperature and its history was introduced into the constitutive model. The extended model was applied to simulations of inelastic deformation behavior under monotonic tension, stress relaxation, creep, isothermal cyclic deformations including stress relaxation and anisothermal cyclic deformations. It was found that the present constitutive model has a capability of describing the inelastic deformation behavior of modified 9Cr-1Mo steel adequately at various loading conditions.
