Unified modeling of high temperature deformations of a Ni-based polycrystalline wrought superalloy under tension-compression, cyclic, creep and creep-fatigue loadings

The complex deformation behaviors under tension-compression, cyclic, creep and creep-fatigue loadings of a nickel-base polycrystalline wrought superalloy at 650℃ and 700℃ were experimentally investigated. To uniformly simulate the complex deformation behaviors, the modified viscoplastic constitutive model combined with both the Kachanov damage evolution equation and the Ohno-Wang modification was formulated on the basis of the Chaboche theory. The simulated results on ten-sion-compression behavior, cyclic viscoplastic and creep deformations showed comprehensive predicting ability. With the obtained material parameters, the deformations in creep-fatigue interaction under three dwell types were simulated and the capability of the modified model was further verified with good accuracy.
