Abstract

A viscoplastic constitutive model for simulating the behavior of Hastelloy-X single crystal material was derived based on crystallographic slip theory. To determine the appropriate constitutive model constants and to test the predictions of the model, tests on Hastelloy-X crystals were carried out, including the rate sensitivity, cyclic hardening, nonproportional hardening, relaxation, and strain rate dip tests. It was found necessary to include cube slip in the model in order to correlate the uniaxial behavior of the single crystal, to incorporate the interaction effects in both the hardening and the dynamic recovery evolution equations for the drag stress, and to successfully capture correct strain rate sensitivity under biaxial tension-torsion loading conditions.
