Luu, Thang Trung. „Déchirure ductile des aciers à haute résistance pour gazoducs (X100)“. Paris, ENMP, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006ENMP1414.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis study concerns the ductile tearing of high-strength pipeline steels (X100). The microstructure and the mechanical response of two plates and a pipe are studied. The microstructure of these materials is mainly ferritic-bainitic. The experimental program includes smooth, notched and cracked specimens. The smooth tensile tests conducted along three principal directions reveal a strong anisotropy plastic effect. The yield strength of the plate is lower than the required value for grade X100 which is obtained on the pipe after UOE forming process. Metallographic and fractographic observations indicate the nucleation of voids around calcium sulfide or titanium nitride particles. Two modes are observed for void coalescence~: internal necking and void-sheet mechanism. The effect of a pre-strain on tensile characteristics and fracture toughness is studied. The flat blanks are subjected to tensile deformation in a servohydraulic testing machine. Pre-strains of 1. 6%, 3. 6% and 5. 9% are imposed through this process. The yield strength and ultimate tensile strength increase with pre-straining. The experimental investigations demonstrate also a significant effect of pre-strain on fracture toughness and stable crack growth resistance. These parameters decrease with pre-straining. The dynamic ductile crack propagation on long distance is studied by an original experiment performed on wide-plates. This experiment allows us to reproduce crack growth rate as long as 20-40m/s. The localisation of deformation resulting in dynamic shear fracture is reproduced as observed in pipeline burst. The resistance to fast crack propagation is evaluated quantitatively by energy dissipation rate. Our tests confirm the advantage of ferritic-bainitic steels for the yield strength-toughness compromise. Ductile tearing of wide-plates was simulated using FE method. The simulations are based on an extension of Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman model which includes the description of plastic anisotropy and void nucleation. A new anisotropic yield function recently developed for aluminium alloys is used. The parameters are adjusted on small specimens. The model is then used to simulate the ductile tearing on a wide-plate. Main characteristics of ductile tearing tests are reproduced~: the loading curve, the shape of crack front, the development of thickness reduction and the energy dissipation rate

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleHigh toughness of pipeline steels at low temperature is required to avoid catastrophic propagation of brittle crack. The aim of the study is to improve physical understanding and quantitative assessment of the toughness behavior of hot-rolled pipeline steels, focusing on the lower part of the ductile to brittle transition temperature range.The impact toughness of these steels is commonly validated using drop weight tear tests (DWTT), on the basis of fracture surfaces that must exhibit less than 15% of brittle fracture appearance. In thermomechanical control processed steels, brittle out-of-plane cracks such as delamination (which propagates along the rolling plane), and brittle tilted fracture (BTF) along theta-planes (tilted around RD by 40° with respect to rolling plane), have been characterized in the ductile to brittle transition temperature range, for both industrial (DWTT) and laboratory Charpy impact tests. In both cases, as well as in fracture toughness tests, such brittle out-of-plane cracking has been shown to impair the impact toughness.The anisotropy in plastic flow and sensitivity to cleavage fracture has been characterized as a function of temperature, by using tensile tests on specifically designed smooth and notched specimens. From finite element mechanical analysis of these tests, critical cleavage stresses normal to the rolling plane and the theta-plane are considerably lower (around 25%) than for planes normal to the rolling and transverse directions.The anisotropy in critical cleavage stress has been quantitatively correlated to microtexture anisotropy. So-called “potential cleavage facets” have been defined and measured in this study, as regions with unfavorably oriented {100} planes, which are taken as unit crack paths for cleavage propagation. A sample containing 20% of potential cleavage facets had a critical cleavage stress 20% lower than a sample with only 10% of potential cleavage facets.The size and shape of these potential cleavage facets evolve during plastic deformation. Therefore, the critical cleavage stress was found to be affected by plastic strain history. In the case of delamination, potential cleavage facets along the rolling plane were elongated during loading, their area was increased and the corresponding critical cleavage stress decreased by around 30% with respect to the undeformed case. This made delamination cracking easier. Moreover, the presence of a ductile crack at the initiation site of delamination locally modified the stress state and also facilitated delamination occurrence. A criterion has been developed to numerically predict the onset of delamination in tensile and Charpy specimens.Application of this approach to heat-treated and to prestrained specimens eventually showed that it was possible to modify the sensitivity to delamination by strongly modifying the initial microtexture anisotropy

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe objective of this work is to develop a predictive modeling of behavior and ductile fracture of metallic materials with initial anisotropy and induced by the ductile anisotropic damage. Thermodynamics of irreversible processes is used as a framework for the proposed formulation. The model is anisotropic elastoplastic with non-linear isotropic and kinematic hardening under large plastic strains. It is formulated in the framework of the non-associative plasticity theory with associative normality rule and based on quadratic equivalent stress. The anisotropic ductile damage is described by a symmetric second-rank tensor whose evolution is described by Lemaitre /Desmorat type relationships. The strong damage-behavior coupling is done under the assumption of total energy equivalence where the effect of the anisotropic damage is introduced by a fourth-rank symmetric damage-effect tensor of Murakami kind.After an experimental characterization of the main physical mechanisms of anisotropic damage in stainless steel AISI 316L, the behavior model with damage has been identified. Once discretized and implemented in the computer code ABAQUS / Explicit ®, a parametric study and many numerical simulations of anisotropic damage in some metal forming processes have been carried out and discussed in detail

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleDelayed ettringite formation is a pathology leading to swelling and degradation of the concrete of certain structures. As structure manager, VINCI must ensure the safety of users and goods. To do so, an assessment of the serviceability of affected structures is necessary. This work aims to improve the modeling of mechanical phenomena induced by delayed ettringite formation, especially under stress. An experimental campaign was carried out on prismatic reactive concrete specimens. Some were plain, uniaxially reinforced, triaxially reinforced and subjected to an uniaxial compressive loading of 14.5 MPa. Expansions appeared fairly isotropic in stress-free conditions and reached 0,6 %. Restraint due to reinforcements led to decreased strains in the restrained directions. Expansions were only slightly impacted in transversal free directions. Therefore, DEF expansion under uniaxial stress is anisotropic. Cracks were observed parallel to the restrained direction. For prestressed concrete, creep strains hid possible strains induced by DEF. These specimens were unload after 420 days of immersion in water. It led to a strain increase of about 0,10 % in 3 days in the loaded direction, without any effect on transversal directions. Similar kinetic and range of expansion was measured in both longitudinal and transversal throughout the 200 following days. This phenomenon was understood as the consequence of an alkali leaching acceleration after storage water renewal that occurred during specimens unloading. DEF induced damage on concrete was characterize through compressive tests, brazilian tensile tests and Young modulus measurements before and after expansions. DEF effect on steel-concrete bond behavior was also measured through pull-out tests. Maximal steel-concrete bond stress appears slightly impacted by longitudinal expansions of about 0.25 %, but the bond shear modulus decreases significantly after DEF. All collected experimental data were used to fit a poromechanical model of DEF taking into account all the phenomena involved in the of reinforced concrete behavior (plasticity, damage, creep, shrinkage, distributed reinforcements...).

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleRecently, network and transmission system operators like the European Network of Transmission System Operators of Electricity (ENTSO-E) have started to create regulations to extend the range of operation of the equipment connected to the electrical grid. The main purposes of these changes are: to increase the flexibility of the grid by making it able to withstand variations of frequency and voltage (due to alterations in the active and reactive power balance), and to ease the integration of renewable energy generation. However, many of the installed equipment connected to the grid have not been conceived to be exploited in these operating ranges and their use under these conditions will have a negative impact, especially on the turbo-generators life cycle.Large turbo-generators, used for the generation of electricity in nuclear and hydroelectric power plants, are affected by these new regulations. This impact is especially evident at end-regions of these electrical machines, where the iron losses are likely to increase significantly. These losses can lead to overheating, in particular hot points which can lead to the melting of the insulation layers between the lamination of the stator core, causing short-circuits and irreversible damage to the equipment. To be able to analyze and limit the impact of the involved physical mechanisms, the EDF Company works with tridimensional numerical simulations of the electrical machine to calculate the losses under different regimes of operation.Part of this work has already been realized in the L2EP laboratory, where the finite element analysis software code_Carmel have been adapted for the calculation of core losses and joule losses in tridimensional models. However, the physical complexity of the magnetic circuit properties at the end-regions of turbo-generators must be accounted for, in order to have reliable results. Indeed, considering the tridimensional pattern of the magnetic flux path and the strongly anisotropic properties of the magnetic circuit made from grain oriented electrical steel (GOES), the description of the iron losses requires accurate anisotropic magnetic material models combined with an efficient numerical modelling.In the framework of this PhD work, anisotropic GOES models, related to the behavior law and iron losses, have been studied and successfully implemented in a finite element method (FEM) simulation environment within the software code_Carmel. The implementation has been validated against experimental data achieved on an industrial conventional GO grade typically used in turbogenerators. Also, an experimental demonstrator has been developed to investigate more closely the magnetic behavior of a lamination stack made of GOES under non-conventional 3D magnetic flux excitations. A numerical model of the experimental demonstrator has been developed and studied with the implemented material models by comparing the global behavior of GOES as well as the iron losses in the sample of interest.The results show that under non-conventional magnetic flux attack configurations, especially with a magnetic flux attack normal to the lamination plane, the anisotropic characteristics of the GOES can influence the magnetic flux distribution within the lamination stack and the associated iron losses. In particular, the classical eddy current losses constitute, as expected, the most significant contribution of the total iron losses in the GOES laminations

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis thesis deals with the numerical simulation of cold forming processes, i. E. Wire drawing and rolling. First, high carbon steel mechanical behaviour was measured from experiments throughout this range of steel forming and a progressive mechanical anisotropy has been observed during drawing. Secondly, numerical simulations, with FORGE2005®, have been run to simulate the material behaviour during wire drawing and rolling. The main results show that the widening prediction, with an isotropic behaviour law, is not accurate with an underestimation of 10% on the total width. This underestimation is only 5% when an anisotropic behaviour is used. Then, a microstructural study coupled with an analysis of damage mechanisms was done on high carbon pearlitic steels during wire drawing and rolling. The mechanical anisotropy comes from the orientation of the pearlitic colonies in the drawing, and by the emergence of a preferential crystallographic texture. Three damage mechanisms have been identified during drawing. During rolling, damage expansion kinetics are changed because of heterogeneous strain. Simulation enabled to bring further information and to validate previous experimental observations. Finally, drawing optimization calculations have been performed and enabled to study the sensitivity of the cost functions (damage and drawing force) to optimization parameters (drawing die geometry). Moreover this study highlighted that optimal solution depends on the choice of the cost function and identified an opportunity to reduce damage by reducing the die angle without increasing the axial stresses and the fracture risk

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleUltrasonic propagation simulation in anisotropic and heterogeneous media is essential for nondestructive testing by ultrasounds of multipass austenitic stainless steel welds that are specific of piping in nuclear power stations. Scattering at grain boundaries leads to a strong attenuation as a function of grain orientation. Attenuation measurement is complex. The implemented technique allows taking into account the physical reality of the beams and the material anisotropy. Ultrasonic propagation through the samples is modeled with transmission coefficients calculated with any incidence on a triclinic material. This method results in an increase of the attenuation versus grain orientation. For the first time, measured attenuation coefficients are integrated into a simulation code that validated them by comparison with experience

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleCurrently, the principal range of improvement in the magnetic performances of SiFe magnetic steels is found in the texture of these materials. It is therefore important to know how to evaluate the interest of a given texture for use in electrical engineering in order to know the margines of progress still existing in the design of different devices, and also to estimate if it is interesting or not to metallurgically develop such a texture. The present work aims to set up a tool integrated to study and evaluate a texture, relative to the constraints of electrical engineering. Towards this goal we have focused on the study and evaluation of the "cubic" texture {100}<001>. The metallugic synthesis of this texture was obtained from a procedure which associates cross rolling, surface energy and aluminium. The study showed that this association obtained a strong {100} texture even with quick rises in temperature. After a necessary phase of 2D magnetic characterization, a model of anisotropic and non hysteretic magnetization was elaborated to find the magnetic behavior of textured sheets. Finally, the introduction of such textured materials into electrical devices was studied, based on electromagnetic modeling software well adapted to the description of anisotropy

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleLos aceros inoxidables austeníticos metaestables pueden experimentar una amplia gama de mecanismos de deformación diferentes, los cuales contribuyen a sus extraordinarias propiedades mecánicas. Sin embargo, estas propiedades dependen de la microestructura y son altamente anisotrópicas. Además, la deformación es diferente en la superficie y en el interior de una muestra. Por lo tanto, un estudio detallado no resulta trivial. El objetivo de este trabajo es el estudio de los principales mecanismos de deformación, así como de su desarrollo gradual. Para ello se han realizado ensayos de nanoindentación, tanto monotónica como cíclica, los cuales han permitido la deformación controlada de granos austeníticos preseleccionados. Las curvas de carga y descarga de los ensayos de nanoindentación han proporcionado amplia información sobre el comportamiento mecánico del acero, la cual se ha podido correlacionar con la reconstrucción detallada de las subestructuras de deformación, tanto a nivel superficial como en el interior, la cual se ha llevado a cabo mediante técnicas de caracterización a escala microscópica. Entre otros, se encontraron y estudiaron fenómenos como las transformaciones de fase reversibles bajo carga, la influencia tanto de la anisotropía cristalina como del tamaño de grano, mecanismos dependientes del tiempo, junto con la transmisión de plasticidad y la respuesta a fatiga.
Les aciers inoxydables austénitiques métastables sont le siège de différents mécanismes de déformation qui sont à l'origine des propriétés mécaniques qui distinguent ce type d’alliages. Cependant, ces dernières, dépendant de la microstructure locale, sont fortement anisotropes. Par ailleurs, la déformation d'un échantillon massif serait différente de celle obtenue en surface. De ce fait, une étude détaillée trouve tout son intérêt. Le présent travail vise donc à identifier les principaux mécanismes de déformation et de leur évolution progressive, en se basant sur une déformation contrôlée de grains austénitiques individuels par des tests mécaniques de nanoindentation monotoniques et cycliques. Les courbes correspondantes au chargement-déchargement révèlent des informations détaillées sur les propriétés mécaniques sous-jacentes qui pourraient être liées à une étude complète de la structure de déformation en surface et en volume par différentes techniques de caractérisation à une échelle très fine. La déformation en fonction du temps, les phénomènes de transformation de phase réversible sous charge, l'anisotropie cristalline, l'influences de la taille des grains, la transmission de la plasticité et la tenue en fatigue ont été mis en évidence et étudiés.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe first stages of fatigue damage in metallic polycrystalline materials are governed by local mechanical field at the grain scale. Fatigue crack initiation is often related to the emergence of persistent slip band at surface.Localization of cyclic plasticity occurs within grains of polycristals in which elastic stress field can be highly heterogeneous due to the granular microstructure and crystalline anisotropic elasticity. The main goal of this study is to evaluate and analyse statistically the stress fields in surface grains of polycristals. In this work, the elasticregime only is considered in order to study the subsequent activation of plastic slip and its variability. The possibleconsequences regarding crack formation are also addressed but in a lesser extent. The methodology is based on fullfield finite element numerical simulation of the elastic response of a set of polycrystalline aggregates in which grains orientation is chosen randomly.The two materials chosen for this study exhibit different characteristics regarding crystal elasticity and slip systems.The first one is an austenitic stainless steels 316L (face centered cubic) and the second one a titanium alloy TA6V(hexagonal close packed). The distribution of resolved shear stress within several sets of surface grains, for different classes of crystal orientation, are analysed in relation to local crystallographic configurations in order to identify those which promote - or prevent from - plastic slip activation. For TA6V, the results suggest in particular that basal slip is activated earlier than prismatic slip. In addition, the simulation strategy has been modified tomodel the presence of some sharp band-like crystallographic textures named “macrozones” whose influence has been qualitatively predicted. Plastic slip activation in TA6V is also studied experimentally. In situ tensile test using SEM has shown the earlier activation of basal slip. Experimental data has been combined with simulated distribution of resolved shear stress in order to estimate the critical resolved shear stress of basal and prismatic slip systems
