Abstract:
Abstract:The analysis of the plastic flow characteristics on the basis of the ratcheting experimental results for the bridge steel 16Mn are carried out by calculatig the plastic modulus H and the angle θ between the backstress rate deviator and the plastic flowdirection. The different mechanisms causing uniaxial andmultiaxial nonproportional ratchetting are illustrated, that is, the starting and evolution of uniaxial ratchetting is due to the different values of the plastic modulus H at the symmetric loading points with respect to the mean stress. On the other hand, the staring and evolution of multiaxial nonproportional ratcheting is driven by H and θ variations. The influence of loading history on ratchetting is the result of the influence of loading history on the angle θ.
