Abstract

We present a dynamic theoretical viscoplastic model of voids subjected to external dynamic tensile loadings. The material viscosity and temperature are factors that are considered in the dynamic evolution of voids in viscoplastic materials. We focus on the thermal effect; the temperature affects the thermal softening of the material strength and also the material viscosity. Viscous flow is the dominant growth mechanism under high stresses and rates based on the results of the calculations for dynamic void growth predictions. The factors are independently studied, and the correlations are systematically analyzed.

INTRODUCTION

The growth of voids (such as helium bubbles) under a dynamic load in viscoplastic media is an important factor that causes the damage of materials. We study the dynamic growth of spherical voids by using a viscoplastic model and focusing on the material viscosity and thermal effects
