Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Metastable austenitic CrNi steels undergo phase transformation when loaded or deformed plastically. In the current work a macroscopic and phenomenological constitutive model is presented to model the strain induced transformation of austenite to martensite. The approach is based on the previous works of Olsen and Cohen 1 \& Stringfellow et al. 2. The kinetics of the phase transformation is modelled based on the assumption that the intersections of the shear bands in the austenitic phase, act as potential martensite nucleation locations. Evolution of the shear band density and their intersections are modelled using the plastic strain in the austenitic phase. The probability of the intersection creating martensite is given by a Gaussian cumulative distribution, which in turn depends on the temperature and stress triaxiality. The resulting stress- strain behavior considers the volume fraction, plastic strains and the strain hardening parameters of the individual phases as internal variables. An explicit formulation of the material model is implemented as a user subroutine in a bi-linear element formulation of FEM. Some of the required material parameters are estimated by fitting experimental stress-strain and martensite volume evolution curves. For the purpose of illustrating the model's behavior, boundary value problems of components with structured surfaces are presented.
