Article Citation - WoS: 15Finite deformation plasticity coupled with isotropic damage: Formulation in principal axes and applications(Elsevier Science Bv, 2010) Soyarslan, C.; Tekkaya, A. E.A local, isotropic damage coupled hyperelastic-plastic framework is formulated in principal axes. It is shown that, in a functional setting, treatment of many damage growth models, including those originated from phenomenological models (with formal thermodynamical derivations), micromechanics or fracture criteria, proposed in the literature, is possible. As a model problem, a Lemaitre-variant damage model with quasi-unilateral damage evolutionary forms is given with special emphasis on the feasibility of formulations in principal axes. To this end, closed form expression for the inelastic tangent moduli, consistent with the linearization of the closest point projection algorithm, is derived. It is shown that, generally, even in the absence of quasi-unilateral damage evolutionary conditions, the consistent tangent moduli are unsymmetric. The model is implemented as a user defined material subroutine (UMAT) for ABAQUS/Standard. The predictive capability of the selected model problem is studied through axi-symmetric application problems involving forward extrusion of a cylindrical billet, upsetting of a tapered specimen and tension of a notched specimen, in which characteristic failure mechanisms are observed.

This work aims at the development of a robust numerical strategy in order to solve the non-linear coupled problem presented in the work of Anand [1]. The numerical implementation is performed for finite element method and the analysis are done to address the issue of hydrogen transport and hydrogen-embrittlement-related failures in metals. Specifically, problems related to the mechanism of hydrogen enhanced localized plasticity (HELP) is studied and macroscale shear localization phenomenon resulting from hydrogen induced material softening is considered at the phenomenological level.

In this study, a new uncoupled ductile fracture criterion (DFC) has been developed which considers the effects of material parameters on the forming limit curves (FLCs) and can be easily implemented in the finite element codes. Two different constitutive models have been employed with the new DFC in order to evaluate the results obtained for fracture prediction. Various experimental tests have been utilized to validate the new criterion and its results are also compared with other well-known uncoupled DFCs. It is observed that the new criterion predicts the ductile fracture for all aluminum, steel and stainless steel materials better than the former criteria.
