Beschreibung des Fließverhaltens eines hochfesten austenitischen Stahles unter zweiachsiger Belastung durch eine konstitutive Gleichung
Abstract
Uniaxial and biaxial tension-torsion tests were carried out on a high strength austenitic steel at room temperature in the strain rate range from 10highminus5 to 10high2 shighminus1. This material shows a strong dependence of strength on strain rate. The yield loci of the combined tests are described by ellipses. The size and the shape of these ellipses are functions of strain and strain rate. The quasistatic and dynamic tension-torsion behaviour of the austenitic steel is described by Perzyna's constitutive equation. There is good agreement between measured and calculated results if a yield criterion as a function of strain and strain rate, and a formula which contains the dependence of flow stress on strain rate based on thermal activation, are included.
