Abstract

In this paper, an efficient algorithm is established in order to estimate the plastic properties of power-law hardening bulk specimen materials with one simple spherical indentation impression test. This work is based on a new formulation of representative strain and, therefore, compare to the preceding approaches the fitting parameters are significantly reduced. Moreover, the new definition of representative strain endowed more physical meaning to the representative strain. In order to verify the reliability of the reverse analysis, we have studied a broad set of materials whose property ranges cover essentially all engineering metals and alloys. Based on the indentation force-displacement P-${\delta}$ curves obtained from numerical simulations, the characteristics of the indentation response and material elastoplastic properties are bridged via explicit functions. Next, through the procedure of reverse analysis the yield stress and power-law hardening exponent of bulk specimen materials can be determined. Finally, good agreement between the result from reverse analysis and initial input data from experiment can be observed.

본 논문에서는 단 한번 만의 간단한 구형 인덴테이션 임프레션 실험을 통하여 재료 소성 물성치를 측정함에 있어서 효율적인 알고리즘이 개발되었다. 본 논문에서는 레프리젠터티브 스트레인의 새로운 정의를 기반으로 연구가 수행되어 예전의 연구와 비교할 때 상당한 량의 피팅 매개변수의 개수를 줄이게 됨으로서 계산 량이 대폭 줄어들면서 연구가 쉽게 진행될 수 있었다. 또한 레프리젠터티브 스트레인에 대한 새로운 정의는 보다 명확한 물리적 임의를 부여하였다. 역 해석의 신뢰성을 증명하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 거의 모든 공학적 금속과 합금이 포함되는 재료 세트들을 사용하여 해석을 진행하였다. 수치 해석 모델링을 통하여 얻은 P-${\delta}$ 그래프를 바탕으로 하여 인덴테이션 반응 특성과 재료의 탄소성 물성치가 양 함수에 의하여 연계되었고, 역 해석방법을 적용시켜 재료의 항복응력과 power-law 경화 지수가 얻어진다. 마지막으로, 역 해석을 통하여 얻어진 재료 물성 치와 실제 실험을 통하여 얻어진 재료 물성치가 좋은 일치성을 가진다는 것을 보여준다.
