Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fracture crack propagation prediction, and in particular to a method and system for predicting crack path propagation of a pre-cracked plate based on crystal plasticity. Background Art
[0002] In the field of materials science, especially in the study of fracture mechanics and crystal plasticity theory, how to accurately predict the damage and fracture behavior of materials under different loading conditions has always been the focus of researchers. In existing research, some progress has been made by combining different damage criteria with crystal plasticity theory, providing a powerful tool for predicting material damage and fracture.
[0003] Crystal plasticity theory takes into account the influence of the microscopic lattice structure of the material on plastic deformation and can more accurately describe the mechanical behavior of the material. The damage criterion is the key to judging the initiation and evolution of material damage. At present, there are many damage criteria, such as the cohesion criterion and the maximum shear strain criterion, each of which has certain advantages in different application scenarios.
[0004] However, although these studies have improved the accuracy of prediction to a certain extent, the following problems still exist when dealing with cracked plates of different thicknesses: due to their special geometric characteristics and mechanical properties, crack propagation paths and fracture mechanisms of cracked plates of different thicknesses often have significant differences. Therefore, how to select appropriate damage criteria to accurately predict the damage and fracture behavior of cracked plates of different thicknesses has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the invention
[0005] At present, most simulation studies focus on two-dimensional models or three-dimensional models of fixed size, and do not fully consider the impact of plate thickness changes on fracture morphology. The present invention breaks through this limitation and simulates the mechanical properties and fracture modes of pre-cracked aluminum plates of different thicknesses by combining the crystal plasticity finite element method (CPFEM) with the two damage criteria of bilinear cohesion (CZM) and maximum shear strain (MSS), and provides a method for predicting crack path propagation of pre-cracked plates based on crystal plasticity. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0008] S3: fitting the micro deformation parameters with the stress-strain data of the sample plate during the tensile test to determine the fitting parameters during the plastic deformation process;
[0009] S4: Based on the fitting parameters, multiple mode grain models are established, and different mode grain models are simulated using the crystal plasticity constitutive model. The simulation results are compared with the experimental results to determine the grain model that meets the prediction conditions, and the crack propagation path of the pre-cracked plate to be predicted is predicted using the grain model.

[0072] In this embodiment, the crystal plasticity constitutive model includes a damage evolution model of bilinear cohesive force and a damage evolution model of maximum slip shear strain.
[0073] The method for constructing the damage evolution model of the bilinear cohesive force includes:
[0074] For opening, sliding and tearing crack damage, the stress of the cohesive element in the normal direction and two orthogonal tangential directions is analyzed:
[0075]
[0076] Among them, the subscripts n, s, and t represent the normal direction of the separation traction force T and the two tangential directions that are orthogonal to each other, σ n , σ s and σ t They represent the stress of the cohesive element in the n, s and t directions respectively, and σ max , τ max Indicates the maximum stress that the cohesive interface can withstand in the normal and tangential directions; They represent the initial thickness of the cohesive unit in the normal and tangential directions respectively; δ represents the separation traction force T at the cohesive interface with the relative displacement of the upper and lower surfaces;
[0077] Among them, the critical fracture energy of the cohesive force unit in the n direction, s direction and t direction is expressed as:
[0078]
[0079] In the formula, and represent the critical fracture energy of the cohesive unit in the n, s and t directions respectively; represents the separation displacement of the cohesive element in the n direction, represents the separation displacement of the cohesive force unit in the s direction, represents the separation displacement of the cohesive force unit in the t direction;
[0080] For mixed cracking damage, the strains in the three directions of the cohesive element are defined by the initial thickness T0 of the cohesive element in the undamaged state and the separation displacement of the element node from its initial unloading position:
[0081]
[0082] Among them, ε n represents the strain in the n direction, ε s represents the strain in the s direction, ε t represents the strain in the t direction;
[0083] Based on the strain ε in three directions in the cohesive element n , ε s and ε t , and the stress displacement is obtained:
[0084]
[0085] Among them, δ m is the effective displacement, which is used to describe the equivalent damage evolution parameter under the combination of normal deformation and tangential deformation of the fracture interface. m ) represents the damage evolution, represents the initial separation displacement of the cohesive unit, represents the separation displacement corresponding to the complete separation failure of the cohesive unit interface, K nn , K ss , K tt They represent the stiffness of the cohesive force model in the normal direction and the two tangential directions respectively.
[0086] Furthermore, the initial damage criterion of the damage evolution model of the bilinear cohesive force is:
[0087]
[0088] in, and They represent the maximum stress that the cohesive force interface can withstand in the normal direction and two orthogonal tangential directions respectively; <> means that the normal stress of the cohesive force model is not negative, that is, the cohesive force unit is not compressed in the normal direction.
[0089] Specifically, the effective displacement δ m The conditions met are:
[0090]
[0091] Among them, δ n represents the displacement of the separation traction force T in the n direction, δ s represents the displacement of the separation traction force T in the s direction, δ t Represents the displacement of the separation traction force T in the t direction.
[0092] In this embodiment, the method for constructing the damage evolution model of the maximum slip shear strain includes:
[0093] When the maximum slip shear strain in all slip systems reaches the specified critical value, damage begins to occur and accumulate, and the damage degree D of the material is expressed as:
[0094]
[0095] Among them, γ m is the maximum shear strain in all slip systems; γ m,ini is the critical value at the beginning of damage, that is, when the maximum shear strain in all slip systems reaches this value, the material begins to be damaged; γ m,max It is the critical value when the damage degree is the largest, that is, when the maximum shear strain in all slip systems reaches this value, the damage degree of the material reaches the upper limit value D max ; M is the damage evolution index of the material;
[0096] Based on the damage degree D of the material, the expression of effective shear stress is obtained:
[0097]
[0098] Where τ represents the shear stress tensor;
[0099] Substituting the expression of effective shear stress into equation (7) yields:
[0100]
[0101]
[0102] Therefore, the slip system strength The calculation formula evolves into:
[0103]
[0104] Among them, h αβ is the slip hardening modulus, and the variation range in the α and β slip systems is summed over all slip systems, so h αα and h αβ Represent the self-hardening modulus and potential hardening modulus respectively.
[0105] In this embodiment, the microscopic deformation parameters of the crystalline material during the plastic deformation process include material constants in the elastic stage, cohesive force parameters of grain boundary fracture and intracrystalline fracture, and maximum shear strain damage parameters, which are obtained by:
[0106] In the ABAQUS finite element analysis software, boundary conditions are assigned to the actual microscopic model according to the actual experimental conditions, and the UMAT subroutine is used to perform multiple crystal plasticity finite element simulations to obtain the material constants in the elastic stage;
[0107] The UMAT subroutine written based on the two damage criteria of bilinear cohesion criterion and maximum shear stress criterion was used for multiple crystal plastic finite element simulations to determine the cohesion parameters of grain boundary fracture and intragranular fracture and the maximum shear strain damage parameters. In this embodiment, the cohesion grain boundary fracture parameter stiffness E is 42000Mpa, the maximum nominal stress T is 220Mpa, and the interface energy fracture critical value G is 0.00012N / mm; the cohesion intergranular fracture parameter stiffness E is 42000Mpa, the maximum nominal stress T is 200Mpa, and the interface energy fracture critical value G is 0.00015N / mm; the critical value γ at the onset of maximum shear strain damage m,ini is 0.1, the critical value γ when the damage degree is maximum m,max is 0.4, the exponent M of the damage evolution order is 1, and the damage degree reaches the upper limit value D max is 0.8.
[0108] In step S2, the finite element model is subjected to multiple crystal plastic finite element simulations according to boundary conditions, wherein one end of the aluminum plate is fixed and a displacement load is applied to the other end of the aluminum plate, and the obtained simulation data results are calibrated with the stress-strain response data obtained from the tensile test. Figure 3 (a) to (c) show the grain orientation diagram, pole figure and grain size distribution bar diagram, respectively. Figure 3 (d) and (e), the material constants of the aluminum plate in the elastic stage are finally determined to be C11: 106750Mpa, C12: 64410Mpa and C44: 28340Mpa, with reference to the shear rate is 0.001, the strain rate sensitivity factor n is 10, the plasticity parameter h0 is 280Mpa, τ s It is 24.15Mpa and τ0 is 20Mpa.
[0109] In step S4, Figure 4 As shown in (a), four different modes of grain models are established. The morphological distribution of grains is (I) actual morphological distribution of grains, (II) normal distribution of Voronoi polygons, (III) normal distribution of grain growth morphology, and (IV) uniform distribution of Voronoi polygons. The stress-strain data obtained by simulating based on the MSS model and the CZM model are compared with the experimental results. The experimental results are shown in Figure 4 (b) and Figure 4 As shown in (c), the MSS model has little effect on the results due to the lack of grain boundary insertion; while in the CZM model, the grain morphology has a greater effect on the stress-strain curve, but it is also within a reasonable range. Considering various factors, the uniform model III should be selected to obtain higher computational efficiency and convergence.
[0110] In order to explore the effect of different thickness plates on tensile properties, the material selected for the experiment was 1060 aluminum alloy. Aluminum plates with thicknesses of 1mm, 5mm, and 10mm were cut into standard tensile specimens and cracks were pre-set on one side of the middle of the specimens. Quasi-static tensile tests were all conducted on an MTS Landmark 370.10 testing machine. The loading speed of the uniaxial tensile test was 2mm / min. A room temperature extensometer was used to measure the strain of the specimen during tension. Tensile tests were conducted on pre-cracked specimens with thicknesses of 1mm, 5mm, and 15mm and crack lengths fixed at 1.5mm. The fracture morphology and mechanical properties of these specimens are shown in Figure 2. Figure 4 As shown. Three grain models of different scales, 2D, 2.5D and 3D, were established. Two damage criteria were used to simulate the three different scale models. The simulated crack extension results were compared with the experimental results.
[0111] from Figure 5 As can be seen in (a), as the thickness increases, a ductile-brittle transition occurs. Figure 4 This is also demonstrated by the stress-strain curves in (c). In addition, 2D, 2.5D, and 3D models with two failure criteria were established using CPFEM to describe the effect of specimen thickness. Figure 5 (b) and (c) also give the stress contours and mechanical property comparisons between the two failure criteria and the experiment. For all specimens, the three finite element models using the MSS criterion showed similar fracture modes and mechanical behaviors to the experiment compared with the CZM. In addition, the 2D model and the 2.5D model using the CZM have the same number of cohesive elements inserted, so the stress-strain curves are similar, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 5 (c). On the other hand, inserting more cohesive elements in the 3D model leads to higher stress-strain curves. Generally speaking, in the MSS criterion, the damage process of each element is calculated independently, which provides a more effective method for evaluating the overall mechanical behavior of metal materials.
