Abstract
The thermo–mechanical behavior of in situ TiB2/7050 Al metal matrix composites is investigated by quasi-static and Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar compression tests over a wide range of temperature (20~30 °C) and strain rate (0.001~5000 s−1). Johnson–Cook and Khan–Liu constitutive models determined from curve fitting and constrained optimization are used to predict the flow stress during deformation. In addition, another Johnson–Cook model calculated from an orthogonal cutting experiment and finite element simulation is also compared in this study. The prediction capability of these models is compared in terms of correlation coefficient and average absolute error. Due to the assumptions in orthogonal cutting theory, the determined Johnson–Cook model from cutting cannot describe the material deformation behavior accurately. The results also show that the Khan–Liu model has better performance in characterizing the material’s thermo–mechanical behavior.
Highlights
Over the past decades, particle reinforced metal matrix composites (PRMMCs) have received wide attention against conventional material in the structural engineering field due to their excellent properties, such as high strength-to-weight ratio, high modulus-to-weight ratio and excellent fatigue resistance [1,2,3,4]
Of temperature, the flow stress decreases at a specified strain rate to the strain dueOn to the effect. the
This is due to the fact that the calculation theory of constitutive model from orthogonal cutting is based on many assumptions, such as plane strain conditions, sharp cutting edge, and constant thickness of primary shear zone and so on
Summary
Particle reinforced metal matrix composites (PRMMCs) have received wide attention against conventional material in the structural engineering field due to their excellent properties, such as high strength-to-weight ratio, high modulus-to-weight ratio and excellent fatigue resistance [1,2,3,4]. From the research of Xu and Huang [24] on the thermomechanical behavior of tungsten-based composites, they found that the KHL model had a better description ability than JC model for both quasi-static and dynamic experiment data. This was consistent with the conclusions by Khan and Liang [15]. Umbrello et al [26] compared five different sets of material constants in the JC model for AISI 316 L steel from studies on the finite element simulation of orthogonal cutting They found that the material constant in the constitutive model had a sensitive effect on the simulation accuracy.
