AI Technical Summary
The prior art lacks a mathematical model that effectively describes the compression creep deformation behavior of titanium alloys, making it difficult to simulate or predict the deformation and life of materials under long-term service conditions, increasing the risk of failure of engineered structural parts due to long-term deformation.
A constitutive model of compression creep in metal materials was constructed. By introducing a creep time threshold related to nominal compression stress, it is assumed that creep deformation will no longer occur after exceeding the creep time threshold. The creep time threshold and material parameters A, n, m, and B were used to establish a creep constitutive model to describe the change relationship of creep strain with time.

[0030] 1) Ignoring the change in the mechanical properties of metal materials during compression creep, a s Related creep time threshold , exceeding time , it is assumed that creep deformation no longer occurs under the compressive load, and it is further assumed that the compressive creep constitutive model can be expressed as:

[0040] 4) Obtained material parameters A 、 n 、 m and B Substitute into formula (1) or material parameters A 、 n and m Substituting into formula (2), the compression creep constitutive model is obtained.
[0041] The following is a detailed explanation of the compression creep constitutive model of Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy obtained from the literature (Wang et al. Journal of Ship Mechanics, 2018, 22(4):464-474).
[0042] Figure 1 The “○” in the figure represents the creep strain-time test data of Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy under different compressive stresses. It can be seen that for 0.7 s pc Compressive creep stress, when the creep time is about 1000 h, the creep strain no longer increases with the increase of creep time, that is, at 0.7 s pc The creep time threshold of Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy under compressive creep stress is 1000h. s pc , 0.85 spc and 0.9 s pc During the test, the creep strain still tends to increase with time. According to the trend of creep strain changing with time, it is estimated that 0.8 s pc , 0.85 s pc and 0.9 s pc The creep time thresholds under compressive creep stress are 2000 h, 2500 h and 5000 h, respectively.
[0043] Here, 0.7 is used s pc and 0.9 s pc Parameters of test data under compressive creep stress A 、 n 、 m and B Preset parameters A 、 n 、 m and B The parameter ranges are [-0.1:0.1], [-0.9:0], [-0.1:0.1] and [1.4:1.8], and the parameters A 、 n 、 m and B Discretize with step sizes of 0.01, 0.01, 0.02, and 0.01 respectively. A 、 n 、 m and B Combination, calculate 0.7 s pc and 0.9 s pc The sum of squares of the errors between the model's predicted value and the experimental value under compressive creep stress is given by formula (3), namely:
[0044] ;
[0045] Among them, in the above formula (3), y ( s i , t k ) indicates the stress s i and time t k The creep strain measured by the test is f ( s i ,t k ) represents the stress predicted by formula (1) s i and time t k The creep strain value at M is the number of creep stress levels selected (here M =2), N is the total number of moments used to calculate creep strain.
[0046] When the above formula (3) is minimum, the corresponding A 、 n 、 m and B They are 0.03, -0.57, 0.06 and 1.48 respectively. Substituting these parameters and the creep time thresholds under different compressive creep stresses into Equation (1), the compressive creep constitutive model of Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy is obtained.
[0047] Figure 1 The lines in the figure are given using 0.7 s pc and 0.9 s pc The compressive creep constitutive model of Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy obtained by fitting the creep-time test data under compressive creep stress and the 0.8 s pc and 0.85 s pc Creep constitutive prediction results under compressive creep stress. It can be seen that the constitutive model proposed in this invention can well describe the relationship between the creep strain and time of Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy under different stress levels.
[0048] The method for constructing a compressive creep constitutive model for metallic materials disclosed herein can describe the temporal relationship between creep strain under a constant compressive load. The method can also predict the temporal relationship between creep strain under other different compressive loads using test data from two compressive loads, significantly reducing testing costs. Furthermore, the method can predict the creep deformation behavior of materials under long-term compressive loads, thereby optimizing the design of structural components and improving their service reliability. The model incorporates a creep time threshold related to the nominal compressive stress. Beyond this threshold, creep deformation ceases under this compressive load, enabling a better description of creep test results for metallic materials under constant compressive loads.

However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
