A Comprehensive Structural Strain Method Incorporating Strain-Hardening Effects: From LCF to Ratcheting Evaluations

Volume 1A: Codes and Standards, 2018
As a further extension to the structural strain method first introduced by Dong et al [1], this paper presents an enhanced structural strain method which incorporates material nonlinearity and for two typical weld structures, i.e. weldment with plate sections (e.g. gusset weld or cruciform weld etc.) and weldment with beam sections. (e.g.

A strain-dependent ratchet model for [phosphate]- and [ATP]-dependent muscle contraction

Journal of Muscle Research & Cell Motility, 1998
A minimal strain-dependent ratchet model of muscle cross-bridge action is proposed which is broadly compatible with structural and kinetic constraints. Its essential features are: (1) dynamic binding of the S1-products complex to actin through a disorder-order transition coupled to the release of inorganic phosphate; (2) the absence of a force ...

Clarification of strain limits considering the ratcheting fatigue strength of 316FR steel

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2008
The effect of ratcheting on fatigue strength was investigated in order to rationalize the strain limit as a design criterion of commercialized fast reactor systems. Ratcheting fatigue tests were conducted at 550 °C. Duration of the ratchet straining was set for a certain number of strain cycles taking the loading condition of fast reactors into account,

Ratchetting strain as a damage parameter in controlling crack growth at elevated temperature

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 2009
Progressive increase in tensile strains near a crack tip has been observed from finite element studies of stationary and growing cracks (Zhao, 2004, 2008) [1,2] under cyclic loading conditions. In this work, the significance of such a phenomenon was further explored. In particular, stress-controlled experiments were carried out to evaluate the uniaxial

Simulation of ratcheting strain to a high number of cycles under biaxial loading

International Journal of Solids and Structures, 2003
Abstract The Ohno–Wang kinematic hardening rule is modified to incorporate the Burlet–Cailletaud radial evanescence term for an improved simulation of the ratcheting behavior. The Delobelle parameter δ′ is implemented in the modified model to compromise shakedown of the Burlet–Cailletaud hardening rule and over-prediction of the Ohno–Wang model.

Modelling of Damage Development and Strain Ratchetting Using a Viscoplastic Constitutive Formulation

Key Engineering Materials, 2009
Simulation of both damage development and strain ratchetting in uniaxial loading conditions has been presented for a nickel-based superalloy at 650°C using the unified Chaboche viscoplastic model. A third kinematic hardening component was employed to simulate strain ratchetting; and a damage variable, based on plastic strain development, was also ...

Influence of Mean Strain on Fatigue Life of Stainless Steel (Effect of Constant and Ratcheting Mean Strain)

Volume 3: Design and Analysis, 2014
The influence of mean strain on fatigue life was investigated for Type 316 stainless steel at room temperature in ambient environment. Two types of mean strain were simulated in the fatigue tests: constant and increasing (ratcheting) mean strains. In order to apply the constant mean strain, prestraining was induced prior to fatigue tests.

An Experimental Study of Progressive Strain Growth Due to Thermal-Stress Ratcheting

Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology, 1978
A special plate-shaped specimen with two symmetrical, straight air gaps in the center portion and a pair of holes for load chucks at the end portion is used for thermal-stress ratcheting experiments. Experimental results on strain growth due to thermal-stress ratcheting are presented for specimens made of types 304 and 316 austenitic stainless steel ...
