Abstract
Abstract In the code for nuclear equipment, the elasto-plastic correction factor KE is a correction factor when the stress range exceeds the yield limit for simplified elasto-plastic fatigue analysis. The parameters and expressions of KE for commonly used materials (such as austenitic stainless steel) are given in the RCC-M and ASME codes, but the parameters of KE for titanium alloy materials are lacking. Based on the cyclic elasto-plastic constitutive model of Z2CND18.12 (nitrogen control) and KE parameters of austenitic stainless steel given in the code, considering various sensitive factors, a numerical calculation method for determining KE correlation coefficient is established. The elasto-plastic constitutive model of TA16 alloy with nonlinear kinematic hardening was established by the uniaxial tension, strain, and stress cycling tests of TA16 titanium alloy. Based on the numerical calculation method of KE and the constitutive model of TA16 titanium alloy, the expression and correlation coefficient of KE for TA16 titanium alloy were determined.
