Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of friction stir welding, and in particular to an improved Chaboche model suitable for friction stir welding and a parameter identification method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Friction stir welding is a solid-phase joining process. Its basic principle is to rapidly heat the material in the joint area to a visco-plastic state through the friction and extrusion between the high-speed rotating stirring head and the workpiece to be welded. As the stirring head moves along the joint path at a certain forward speed, a stable plastic material flow zone is formed behind it. Under the extrusion of the stirring head shoulder, the plasticized material is re-compacted and cooled to form a dense, continuous and firmly bonded weld. Compared with traditional fusion welding processes such as TIG welding or MIG welding, the friction stir welding process significantly reduces the risk of welding deformation and thermal cracking due to its lower heat input and temperature gradient. Its welded joints not only show the advantages of high strength and low residual stress, but also have the advantages of fewer defects and no need for filler welding materials. It has been successfully used in aerospace, automotive manufacturing, industrial construction and other fields, and has shown broad application prospects in the connection of aluminum-based materials.

[0003] In actual service, friction stir welded aluminum alloy butt joints are often subjected to low-cycle cyclic loading, and their mechanical response is significantly dependent on the existing plastic loading history. To accurately characterize the nonlinear mechanical response of metal materials under low-cycle cyclic loading in numerical simulations, existing technologies usually use cyclic constitutive models for finite element modeling and analysis, such as the Dafalias-Popov hyperboloid model and the traditional Chaboche model. A reasonable cyclic constitutive model can not only characterize the nonlinear behaviors of materials such as strain hardening effect, temperature effect, and strain rate effect under low-cycle cyclic loading, but also effectively capture complex mechanical phenomena such as memory effect, Bauschinger effect, and ratcheting effect. The construction of a cyclic constitutive model is of great significance for the design and optimization of structural parts. It can provide a reliable numerical basis for achieving high-precision simulation of structural mechanical response under complex service conditions, thereby improving material utilization efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0004] The hysteresis curves of friction stir welded aluminum alloy butt joints exhibit plump, spindle-shaped characteristics. During cyclic loading, the joints exhibit significant loading path dependence, influenced by the coupling of multiple mechanisms, including dislocation density evolution and material microstructure damage accumulation. Under different loading regimes, friction stir welded aluminum alloy butt joints exhibit significant differences in mechanical properties, including elastic modulus degradation, isotropic soft hardening, and asymmetric tensile and compressive responses. The traditional Chaboche model struggles to effectively characterize these complex characteristics. With the rapid advancement of simulation technology, although various improved cyclic constitutive models have been proposed, they generally suffer from complex model structures, low computational efficiency, limited accuracy, and cumbersome parameter identification, making them difficult to meet the practical needs of rapid prediction and performance evaluation in engineering. Therefore, a cyclic constitutive model for friction stir welded aluminum alloy butt joints with clear physical mechanisms, efficient computational performance, and a simple parameter identification process is urgently needed to support the numerical simulation and engineering applications of these joints in fields such as aviation, automotive, and construction. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention aims to propose an improved Chaboche model suitable for friction stir welding and its parameter identification method. By improving the multi-mechanism coupling characterization capability of the Chaboche model and combining it with an intelligent parameter optimization method, an efficient tool is provided for fatigue life prediction and structural optimization of friction stir welded joints, significantly improving the engineering application value of numerical simulation.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is achieved as follows:

[0007] An improved Chaboche model suitable for friction stir welding is disclosed.

[0021] Furthermore, for materials with symmetrical characteristics of tension and compression response, with back stress as the symmetry center, the improved Chaboche model is simplified to be defined using only the tension domain parameters, and the compression domain parameters are set to be the same as the tension domain parameters, i.e., E 0,拉 =E 0,压 、E sat,拉 =E sat,压 、ω 拉 =ω 压 、μ 拉 =μ 压 、 b 拉 =b 压 、a 拉 =a 压 、k 拉 =k 压 、r 拉 =r 压 、σ| 0,拉 =σ| 0,压 and C i,拉 =C i,压 and γ i,拉 =γ i,压 (i=1,2,3…N).

[0052] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] An improved Chaboche model suitable for friction stir welding is disclosed. The improved Chaboche model discriminates the tensile and compressive responses by using the difference between the elastic test stress and the total back stress; introduces equivalent plastic strain and peak residual strain to characterize the elastic modulus degradation and isotropic soft hardening behavior; characterizes the kinematic hardening by superposing multiple independent nonlinear components; and calibrates the elastic modulus degradation, isotropic soft hardening, and kinematic hardening parameters in the tensile and compressive domains, respectively, to achieve optional asymmetric modeling of the tensile and compressive responses.

[0055] In a specific example, the elastic stiffness matrix of the improved Chaboche model is:

[0056]

[0057] Where C is the elastic stiffness matrix; λ is the first Lamé parameter; G is the shear modulus; v is the Poisson's ratio; E n is the elastic modulus at the current moment; E0 is the initial elastic modulus; E sat is the saturation value of elastic modulus degradation; ω and μ are parameters that control the degradation rate of elastic modulus; is the equivalent plastic strain; ε p,m is the peak residual strain; ε is the total strain; σ is the Von Mises stress.

[0058] In a specific example, the yield criterion and hardening criterion of the improved Chaboche model are:

[0059]

[0060] Where f is the yield function; σ e is the equivalent stress; σ|0 is the initial yield stress; S is the deviatoric stress tensor; α is the back stress tensor; R is the isotropic soft hardening component; α i is the i-th back stress component; N is the number of back stress groups. By increasing the N value, the kinematic hardening accuracy can be improved; C i and γ i is the kinematic hardening parameter; Q ∞ and D ∞ are the hardening saturation value and softening saturation value respectively; b and a are the isotropic hardening rate and softening rate respectively; k and r are the material parameters that control the soft hardening saturation value respectively; is the equivalent plastic strain increment.

[0061] In a specific example, the flow criterion of the modified Chaboche model is:

[0062]

[0063] Among them, dε p is the plastic strain increment tensor; dη is the plastic multiplier; σ′ is the stress tensor.

[0064] In a specific example, the tensile and compressive response criterion of the improved Chaboche model is:

[0065]

[0066] Among them, σ trial is the current elastic test stress; α is the total back stress.

[0067] In a specific example, the improved Chaboche model adopts a tension-compression dual-domain definition method, and the total number of parameters is 22+4N, where N is the number of back stress groups; the model parameters are specifically composed as follows: Tensile domain parameters (11+2N): E 0,拉 、E sat,拉 、ω 拉 、μ 拉 、 b 拉 、a 拉 、k 拉 、r 拉 、σ| 0,拉 and N Group C i,拉 and γ i,拉 (i=1,2,3…N); compression domain parameter (11+2N): E 0,压 、E sat, pressure, ω pressure, μ pressure, b pressure, a pressure, k pressure, r pressure, σ| 0, Pressure and N group C i, Pressure and γ i, Pressure (i=1,2,3...N).

[0068] In a specific example, for a material with symmetrical characteristics of tension and compression response (with back stress as the symmetry center), the improved Chaboche model is simplified to be defined using only the tension domain parameters, and the compression domain parameters are set to be the same as the tension domain parameters, that is, E 0,拉 =E 0,压 、E sat,拉 =E sat,压 、ω 拉 =ω 压 、μ 拉 =μ 压 、 b 拉 =b 压 、a 拉 =a 压 、k 拉 =k 压 、r 拉 =r 压 、σ| 0,拉 =σ| 0,压 and C i,拉 =C i,压 and γ i,拉 =γ i,压 (i=1,2,3…N).

[0069] In a specific example, for materials that undergo compressive buckling and tension-compression asymmetry, the improved Chaboche model independently defines parameter groups for the tension domain and the compression domain and establishes a tension-compression dual-domain constitutive relationship to achieve differentiated characterization of compression and tension behaviors.

[0070] In summary, this embodiment achieves:

[0071] Elastic modulus degradation: By introducing equivalent plastic strain and peak residual strain, the elastic modulus is dynamically adjusted to characterize the stiffness attenuation characteristics of the material during cyclic loading.

[0072] Isotropic soft hardening: Dual-domain parameters (tension / compression) are used to describe the soft hardening behavior of yield stress, solving the problem that traditional models cannot reflect the asymmetric response of tension and compression.

[0073] Kinematic hardening: By superimposing multiple sets of nonlinear back stress components, the adaptability to complex back stress paths is enhanced.

[0074] Tensile and compressive response criterion: Based on the difference between the elastic test stress and the total back stress, the mechanical behavior in the tension and compression domains is dynamically distinguished.

[0075] Example 2

[0076] To achieve the above purpose, see Figure 1-10 This embodiment also provides a parameter identification method of an improved Chaboche model applicable to friction stir welding, comprising the following steps:

[0077] S1: Low-cycle loading tests were performed on friction stir welded aluminum alloy butt joint specimens under various loading conditions to collect complete hysteresis curve data.

[0078] S2: Based on the equivalent plastic strain, peak residual strain, elastic test stress, and total back stress, an improved Chaboche cyclic constitutive model with elastic modulus degradation, kinematic hardening, isotropic soft hardening, and optional asymmetric tensile and compressive response characteristics is constructed, and the model parameter set that needs to be identified is determined accordingly;

[0079] S3: Based on the experimentally obtained hysteresis curve data, the improved Chaboche model is inverted using the sparrow search algorithm to minimize the deviation between the model predicted stress and the experimental stress, and finally the optimal model parameter solution set is obtained; its fitness function is:

[0080]

[0081] Among them, σ opt Predict stress for the model; σ expis the stress measured in the test, K is the total number of measurement points of all test pieces or the total number of data points after data noise reduction processing;

[0082] During the global optimization process, the explorer position is updated as follows:

[0083]

[0084] Among them, X i,j is the position of the i-th sparrow in the j-th dimension; n is the current iteration number; κ max is the maximum number of iterations; α s is a random number between 0 and 1 and satisfies α s ≠0; Q is a random number that follows a normal distribution; L is a row vector containing d elements 1; W T and S T They are warning value and safety value respectively;

[0085] During the global optimization process, the joiner position is updated as follows:

[0086]

[0087] Among them, X p is the optimal position of the current explorer; X W is the current global worst position; A + is a row vector containing d elements 1 or -1, and satisfies A + =A T (AA T ) -1 ;

[0088] During the global optimization process, the position of the sentinel is updated as follows:

[0089]

[0090] Among them, X b is the current global optimal position; β and η are random numbers; f i 、f g and f w are the fitness values ​​of the current individual, the current global optimal solution, and the current global worst solution respectively; Ψ is a non-zero decimal.

[0091] This embodiment effectively solves the problem that the traditional single constitutive model is difficult to accurately reflect the differences in mechanical characteristics of stir friction welded aluminum alloy butt joints under different loading regimes, including behaviors such as elastic modulus degradation, isotropic soft hardening and asymmetric tension and compression response. The proposed improved Chaboche cyclic constitutive model has a clear physical mechanism, the meaning of each parameter is clear, and it has good computational efficiency. The sparrow search algorithm is used to inversely optimize the model parameters, effectively avoiding the problem of easily falling into local optimal solutions in high-dimensional parameter identification. Through this method, a cyclic constitutive model that is applicable to a variety of loading regimes and can accurately characterize the asymmetric mechanism of tension and compression response can be established, so as to analyze and apply stir friction welded aluminum alloy structures in advanced analysis and engineering fields. This embodiment has the advantages of being fast, accurate, easy to operate, effective and feasible.

[0092] In a specific example, in order to improve recognition efficiency and stability, the parameter value range of the improved Chaboche model is determined by trial and error. The improved Chaboche model adopts Latin hypercube sampling and initializes the population in a multidimensional parameter space.

[0093] It should be noted that this embodiment calculates the peak residual strain of the history by the forward Euler method; when computing resources are insufficient, the dimension of the search space can be selectively reduced by fixing some parameters; the stir friction welded aluminum alloy butt joint test pieces of all load conditions should be measured using an extensometer with the same gauge length; the aluminum alloy base material can also use an improved Chaboche cyclic constitutive model as the material model for numerical simulation; when performing numerical simulation, the improved Chaboche cyclic constitutive model of the stir friction welded aluminum alloy butt joint test piece is input into the area within the extensometer gauge length of the stir friction welded aluminum alloy butt joint test piece, and the improved Chaboche cyclic constitutive model of the aluminum alloy base material is input into the area outside the extensometer gauge length of the test piece to improve the simulation accuracy.

[0094] In summary, the sparrow optimization algorithm (SSA) of this embodiment uses the experimental hysteresis curve as a benchmark to construct a fitness function to minimize the error between the predicted and measured stresses.

[0095] Explorer, Joiner, and Sentinel Position Update: The position update strategy integrates random factors and early warning mechanisms to achieve a balance between global exploration and local development. By referencing the current optimal and worst individual positions to guide the population search direction, it effectively improves the ability to escape the local optimum.

[0096] Parameter initialization: Latin hypercube sampling is used to optimize the parameter space search efficiency and support high-dimensional (22+4N) parameter inversion.

[0097] Parameter simplification: If computing resources are limited, some parameters (such as the compression domain parameters of symmetric materials) can be fixed to reduce the dimension.

[0098] Experimental verification and application:

[0099] In a specific implementation, this embodiment can be further illustrated by using the test data of 6061-T6 friction stir welding aluminum alloy butt joint test pieces and 7075-T6 friction stir welding aluminum alloy butt joint test pieces under three low-cycle cyclic loading systems.
