Abstract
The purpose of this work is modelling of the behaviour of a metal matrix (Ti-6242) that governs the nonlinear time-dependent response of the metal matrix composite (SiC/Ti-6242). For this purpose two different viscoplastic constitutive models are applied. First, it is the two-layer viscoplasticity model available in the finite element method (FEM)-based code ABAQUS. Second, it is the model of Chaboche implemented as a user material subroutine into another FEM-based code ANSYS and additionally into the package Mathematica. Parameters of both the models are obtained based on the available results of experimental tests carried out at different temperatures and strain rates. Utilisation of matrix models for simulation of the thermomechanical fatigue behaviour of the undamaged composite is discussed by a comparison with quasi-static tensile and high-temperature creep experimental tests.
