Abstract

Present work is aimed at validation of existing popular cyclic plasticity material models and proposing an improved model for SA 333 Gr. 6 material. Recently reported in-house axial-torsion tests have been used for validation. Present analyses considered Chaboche’s non-linear kinematic hardening rule, Tanaka’s fourth order tensor and Meggiolaro’s non-proportionality considerations. The Chaboche-Tanaka-Meggiolaro model resulted in comparable assessments for stabilized loops under uniaxial, proportional and few non-proportional conditions. However, the axial stress response under most of non-proportional conditions was significantly under-predicted. The proposed modification in dynamic recovery term of kinematic hardening rule resulted in improved assessments for nearly all strain paths.
