ABSTRACT

Keywords: Constitutive modelling Multi-objective Parameter identification SiCp⁠ /Al composites

In industrial forming and machining process, the large plastic deformation of material takes place in wide loading ranges of strain-rate and forming temperature. A satisfactory modelling of quasi-static and dynamic material behaviors is of great importance for understanding physical process and processes optimization. A dependence-based integrated methodology, together with an improved weighted multi-objective parameter identification strategy is presented for the development of phenomenological constitutive model and the parameter identification using experimental data from quasi-static and dynamic tests with instantaneous strain rate variations and plastic strain-related temperature changes. The improved multi-objective parameter identification model is reformulated by introducing three weighting factors for valuing different measure errors and fit standard errors in individual objective function corresponding to each test, considering the sampling point number and active material parameter number under different loading conditions, and balancing optimization opportunity of quasi-static and dynamic sub-objective functions. The methodology is verified for feasibility through illustrative constitutive identification for SiCp⁠ /Al composites. This may provide a methodology of constitutive modelling for predicting material behaviors in quasi-static and dynamic modes equally well.

1. Introduction

In manufacturing industry, almost all material forming and machining processes consist of deforming plastically workpiece under the forces applied by a die or tool [1]. Understanding of material flow behavior under different deformation modes is gaining critical importance in planning of material forming and manufacturing processes, selection of die/tool, design feasibility of final products [2–4]. A schematic of the dependence of analytical modelling and finite element modelling on constitutive model in material forming and machining processes is illustrated in Fig. 1. Therefore, it is necessary to develop/establish constitutive model reflecting the yield criteria, hardening laws and flow rule of the material under com



bined loading conditions of deformation rate and forming temperature. The accuracy of numerical simulation available for industrial applications depends not only upon the applicability and flexibility of material constitutive model, but also the scheme applied to determine material parameters [5]. With the continuous emergence of new materials, classical constitutive models (e.g., Johnson-Cook [6], Arrhenius-type [7], Zerilli-Armstrong [8], etc.), much less so-called unified constitutive models that tend to describe a given crystalline structure or crystalline system, cannot accurately predict the flow behaviors of those new materials in a wide loading range. These pose encountering challenges to the determination of material constitutive models. For improving the applicability and flexibility of the above classical constitutive models, it is necessary to develop or mod

ify advanced constitutive models based on the classical phenomenological constitutive models by introducing the coupled effects (e.g., between strain-rate and temperatures [9], between strain and temperature [10], between other physical or mechanical properties and strain [11,12], and among strain, strain-rate and temperature [13]), some special mechanical behaviors (e.g., strain-softening at high strain [14], scale effect [15], ratcheting effect [16], anisotropy [17], plastic strain gradient [18], etc.), and other experimentally observed physical or mechanical properties varying with deformation such as density in foam metals [19], microscopic damage in composites [20], phase transformation [21], and grain evolution [8,22], etc. This would also lead to the complexity of constitutive model involving more material parameters, and increase the experimental cost for developing constitutive model and identifying its material parameters, of which some can be attained through microscopic observation [20], and some can be also fit

to numerous experimental data in quasi-static and dynamic modes [9–12]. Therefore, the major difficulties for widespread application of phenomenological constitutive model for industrial simulation consist in a larger number of mechanical tests over a wide range of loading conditions needed for using classical identification methodology of constitutive model, identification of coupled relations among explanatory variables, and the ensuing hard identification job of material parameters involved in constitutive characterization [23,24]. The aim of this paper is to present an improved methodology for dependence-based integrated constitutive modelling, together with multi-objective material parameters identification strategy. Using an illustrative, yet complex example for SiC particulate reinforced aluminum matrix composites using experimental data from quasi-static and dynamic tests, the methodology is verified for feasibility by comparing the overall fit quality of the identified constitutive model to experimental data.

A phenomenological constitutive model is actually an empirical relationship for mechanical characterization of complex material responses in different loading regimes [25]. The general formalism of a one-dimensional phenomenological model is to represent the dependence of flow stress on strain, strain-rate, temperature, and some physical/mechanical statistics during deformation, with the following formalism. (1)

or

where is an array of measured properties including varying plastic strain εp, strain rate , forming temperature T, and M other experimentally observed physical properties varying progressively with deformation. An ideal phenomenological model generally consists of strain hardening function, strain rate sensitivity function, and thermal softening function. An exact definition of strain-hardening term is of significant importance to determine a basic shape of constitutive curve taken to be reference for the ensuing identification of strain rate and temperature dependences [26]. A non-exhaustive list of classic strain hardening functions including isolated and coupled ones with strain-rate and temperature as from published literature on phenomenological constitutive model is presented in Table 1. At high temperature or strain-rate levels, coupled effects of temperature and plastic strain, or strain-rate and plastic strain may show strong effects on the material strain-hardening behavior . Apart from strain hardening formalism covered in Table 1, any weighted combination of the strain hardening terms listed in Table 1 can also be adopted to formulate it in multiplicative or additive form.

A dependence-based integrated methodology for constitutive identification is proposed with the following specific procedures. Step 1: The isolated strain hardening function form is chosen from those listed in Table 1, or any weighted combination of those strain hardening functions such as Eq. (2) according to the shape of experimental data curve.

UN CO RR EC TE D

Step 2:

is verified for feasibility by (a) the quality of fit performed for quasi-static test data at reference temperature and strain rate and (b) the relative error of the fit initial yield point σ(εp⁠ =0) value against the offset yield point within a range of 10%. If a poor fit quality (Section 3.3.3) or the relative error of more than 10% is arrived at, go to step 1 for modifying the function form until the two criteria above are both fulfilled.

(2)

Step 3: The thermal softening function form h(T) is chosen among those listed in Table 3 or from any weighted combination of those thermal softening functions.

The parameter A in Table 1 is typically considered initial yield point at quasi-static loading condition taken as the reference for temperature and strain-rate, whereas the yield point of most engineering materials cannot be precisely defined through stress-strain curve shape. The assumption that an offset yield point at plastic strain of 0.1 or 0.2% is chosen arbitrarily as the candidate for the parameter A might be questionable [51]. It is recommended to consider A as a free variable to be fit, and then the candidate for the parameter A is verified for feasibility by judging the relative error of it against the offset yield point within a range of 10%. The most common forms of empirical strain-rate sensitivity functions are summarized in Table 2. The strain rate sensitivity is introduced into strain hardening laws by the addition or product of flow function by strain hardening law in quasi-static mode taken as reference.

Step 4: The feasibility of h(T) is verified by performing multi-objective fit (Section 3.2) of the trial constitutive model in Eqs. (7) or (8) for multiple quasi-static curves of varying flow stress with forming temperatures under different plastic strains. If a poor fit is arrived at, go to Step 3 and revise it. (7)

For thermal-softening function, apart from the simple and well-used Johnson-Cook model, other trial thermal-softening ones h(T) can be chosen from those reported in the literature, as listed in Table 3, or modified accordingly on that basis. Significant correlation between strain-rate and temperature is shown in mechanical behavior, particularly at high strain-rate levels. Hence, thermal softening function is often involved in formulating a constitutive model in the multiplicative form with strain-rate sensitivity function for general-purpose applications as follows.

Step 5: The coupled strain hardening function form with temperature is chosen from Table 1, or any weighted combination of those coupled ones with temperature.

Step 6:

The additive strain rate flow function in Eq. (3) is assumed to be a new strain-hardening function, while the multiplicative one in Eq. (4) corresponds to the evolution of yield surface with strain rate. The coupled effect of strain rate and temperature is often introduced into the strain-rate sensitivity function .

is determined by seeing if the trial constitutive model in Eqs. (9) or (10) can be fit equally well to multiple quasi-static test curves of flow stress against forming temperatures using the weighted multi-objective identification strategy. Otherwise, go to Step 5 and revise it.

but varying with plastic strain history, as vividly illustrated in Fig. 2. Thus, the artificial strengthening of thermal softening effect will lead to an inaccurate estimate of strain-rate sensitivity coefficient. Realistically, varying forming temperatures and strain rates with deformation (see the Appendix A) limits the identification of constitutive parameters using classical non-linear regression strategy. Since the nonconstant nominal/average strain rates and forming temperatures during process are considered in accurate identification of constitutive parameter, an improved and generalized parameter identification based on the weighted multi-objective methodology is proposed to find a more accurate set of material parameters over the entire span of quasi-static and dynamic modes.

where J and W are defined only after in the manuscript. 3. Weighted multi-objective strategy for material parameters identification 3.1. Identification of material parameters: background The commonly used methods for material parameter determination are divided into two categories: inverse analysis and non-linear regression. Inverse analysis is a minimization method of determining the material parameters by solving the least-square sum of the deviation between experimental data in a global range and the model prediction values at the same strain or by performing finite element analysis for comparable simulation results to experimental observation [68,69]. This non-linear regression is to obtain multiple sets of parameter values under localized experimental values in deformation history, through univariate analysis of constitutive model and then to average them to find a final set of parameters [26]. The nonlinear regression approach for parameter identification is implemented successively through the following routines:

3.2. Weighted multi-objective identification methodology

Together with the above dependence-based integrated methodology for constitutive identification, an improved multi-objective identification methodology for material parameters is proposed to arrive at a more accurate, reliable, and generalized set of material parameters. To do this, this paper is based on the criteria from Ref. [71] and suggests a modified version of some criteria for the formulation of objective function as follows.

UN CO RR EC TE D

Criterion 1 The measurement errors of experimental data in one deformation mode should be taken into account in the formulation of objective function.

– The material parameters for work-hardening function can be evaluated through nonlinear regression from quasi-static test, i.e. at reference strain-rate, forming temperature, and other physical or mechanical properties. – The parameters for strain rate sensitivity can be identified by performing regression analysis upon mathematical transformation of dynamic test data in the reference temperature under different plastic strain, and averaging the inversely-transformed parameter values under different plastic strain to obtain final evaluation of strain rate sensitivity parameters. – The parameters for thermal softening can be estimated using the similar approach to the one for determining strain rate sensitivity parameters. – The parameters for characterizing the dependence of flow stress on other physical or mechanical processes, can be calculated by performing regression analysis of flow stress against this physical or mechanical variable under different levels of one independent variable such as strain, strain-rate, or temperature, and later performing nonlinear fit of the physical or mechanical variable against the independent variable. Its identification process is actually more complex due to the coupled effects of it and other independent variables.

Criterion 2 For single curve, all the experimental data points should be accounted for and have equal pressure to be optimized during parameters determination. When optimizing multiple curves corresponding to different deformation modes, it should be ensured that all experimental curves are endowed with equal optimization opportunities, with independence of the number of experimental data in any deformation mode. If involving multi-sub-objectives, individual objective function should be capable of dealing with incorporation of multiple sub-objectives by assigning equal opportunity to be optimized for individual sub-objective, independently of the number of data points in each sub-objective. Criterion 3 Continuity condition of multi-objective function should be fulfilled by means of progressive evaluation of fitting quality

The constant (average) strain-rate experimental data are employed for determining material parameters for strain-hardening and thermal softening functions through the conventional nonlinear regression approach. The isothermal uniaxial mechanical test is a commonly used method for determining the flow stress of a material. The quasi-static test is usually carried out on a universal testing machine. However, the motion is applied at constant travel speed (equal to the product of nominal strain rate and gauge length hw) rather than constant nominal strain-rate on the universal testing machine. In the case of large deformation, the deviation from nominal strain-rate have significant influence upon determination of strain-hardening model of the materials showing the sensitivity of flow stress on strain rate even in quasi-static mode. Moreover, the temperature rise during deformation is not constant

since the gradient-based optimization algorithm cannot be executed in a discontinuous function.

give equal opportunity to each objective function corresponding to one loading mode, the normalization is performed on all objective functions by considering measurement error. Generally, the measure deviation of all experimental points in one deformation mode should be of either constant measurement error, or proportional error to flow stress . Under the assumption of constant measurement error in each loading mode, since the measurement error are unknown, the covariance analysis can be performed to arrive at the measurement error [72]. The measurement error in any deformation

imental points under the jth loading condition, and M the number of loading conditions. The superscripts e and m label the experimental and constitutive-based calculated values, respectively. The accuracy and reliability of inverse analysis strategy for parameter identification are dependent upon the information involved in the objective function, which is arrived at by incorporation of weighting factors in the formulation of multi-objective function [71]. A proper definition of multi-objective function, thus, will result in more accurate identification for constitutive parameters. As can be seen in Fig. 3, the measurement deviation/error of flow stress obtained from dynamic experiments form mean curve at different forming temperatures might be of different scales, i.e. 21 MPa at low temperature and 8 MPa at high temperature within 99% confidence interval. It should be noted that if the measurement errors in different loading modes were of different orders of magnitude, a set of estimates for material parameters might minimize the specific objective function in one deformation mode with larger measurement error and not all objective functions. This would lead the fit material model to perform well in one loading mode but not in others. To

The assignment of weighting factors based on measurement error covariance to different deformation modes also contributes to satisfy the Criteria 1 and 4. Simultaneously, the influence of those individual objective functions with poor quality of fit on multi-objective minimization process is reduced by the assignment of this weighting factor, denoting individual fit standard error. More precisely, during multi-objective optimization process for parameter identification, it is also important to note that equal opportunities to be optimized is given to each objective function corresponding to one mechanical test. Otherwise, the fit constitutive model may behave well in predicting mechanical responses in one loading condition but not in others. This is very likely if the number of experimental points and/or number of active constitutive parameters (less parameters in quasi-static mode) in different loading conditions are of magnitude. The weighting factors in the jth deformation mode considering the number of experimental points and number of active constitutive parameters should be formulated in terms of Criteria 2 and 4, as follows. (21)

Therefore, coupled with the assignment of weighting factors in Eqs. (20) and (21), the multi-objective function in Eq. (16) can be reformulated by (22)

The above multi-objective function can be rearranged to be non-dimensionalized, taking the following relative formalism

It is proved that the Levenberg-Nielsen algorithm is of better performance on convergence and time cost, compared to Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm. An effective initial value of the damping factor λ0 is recommended as follows.

4.3. Results

(40)

Fig. 5(a) and (b) respectively illustrate the quasi-static and dynamic true stress-strain curves of Al6061/SiCp⁠ /15 composites at different forming temperatures, with the offset yield point Rp⁠ 0.2 = 264.0 MPa. From quasi-static curves it is found that with varying forming temperature, the strain hardening behaviors show temperature dependence, and at high temperature than 400 °C, almost no strain hardening arise. The significant thermal softening effect of flow stress in quasi-static mode is temperature dependent, and so it is in dynamic loading mode. The strain-rate sensitivity of flow stress at identical forming temperature in dynamic mode are observed, especially at low forming temperature. Besides, the greater fluctuation of flow stress in dynamic mode than that in quasi-static mode may be ascribed to the nature of variable strain-rates in dynamic loading process.

From the methodology view of point, only by a fewer number of tests where both strain-rate and temperature can vary simultaneously, can the determination of material parameters be achieved using multi-objective identification strategy, compared to classical identification strategies. 4. Case study 4.1. Materials

SiC particulate reinforced Al matrix composites have received wide attention in aerospace, military, automobile, and civil manufacturing fields, due to high specific strength and stiffness, wear resistance, fatigue resistance, and tailored properties above, over conventional aluminum alloys [77]. The SiCp⁠ /Al composites employed for constitutive modelling is15% volume fraction SiC particulate reinforced Al 6061 matrix composites (Al6061/SiCp⁠ /15 composites) processed using pressure infiltration method. Using 3D Laser Scanning Microscope VK-X200, the micrograph of Al6061/SiCp/15 composites is illustrated in Fig. 4, showing the microstructure of SiC particulate with some clustering and no preferred orientation in Al matrix alloy. The reinforcement phase SiC particulates with many sharp corners are approximatively polyhedral and the average particulate size are about 5 µm.

4.4. Constitutive modelling Combined with the weighted multi-objective strategy for material parameters identification, the proposed dependence-based integrated methodology is employed for identifying constitutive model form and its material parameters for SiCp⁠ /Al composites. Single-objective fit of the suitable strain hardening functions chosen in Table 1 for Al6061/ SiCp⁠ /15 composites is performed for quasi-static mechanical data at ⁠ 3 s− ⁠ 1 and 25 °C. Meanwhile, an efficient set of loading conditions of 10− initial estimates are arrived at from a single-objective fit of the quasi-static data.

It yields a feasible fit results with the average absolute relative error of 6.6%, asymptotic fit standard error of 20.12 MPa, and R2⁠ of 98.50%. The comparison of experimental data and identified model prediction is shown in Fig. 7(a). The overestimated flow stress by the identified model implies the temperature dependency of strain hardening behavior. Therefore, thermal softening effect is to be introduced to the mechanical characterization of strain hardening behavior. The chosen coupled strain hardening function form with temperature is not determined using weighted multi-objective identification method until it can be fit equally well to all quasi-static experimental curves, with an acceptable degree of fit. The multi-objective inverse identification yields a weighted thermal softening function form in Eq. (43), with (R2⁠ , AARE, AFSE) being (99.70%, 4.30%, 7.7866 MPa). Comparison of experimental data and model prediction curves in quasi-static loading modes is presented in Fig. 7(b), illustrating the flexibility and accuracy of this weighted multi-objective identification strategy.

Polynomial model is only within a narrow experimental plastic strain, and not extended to a large strain beyond the experimental data. The highest degree of fit for Jeong model is ascribed to more parameters to be fit, increasing the constitutive complexity. Voce and Shin models differ in equation form but coincide in nature. Hence, Voce or Shin models can be chosen for the function formalism describing strain hardening behavior of Al6061/SiCp⁠ /15 composites. The experimental data of flow stress-forming temperature at different plastic strains in quasi-static mode are chosen as many as possible for multi-objective identification of thermal softening function.

Thus, a trial constitutive model for predicting material behaviors of Al6061/SiCp⁠ /15 composites in static and dynamic modes is established in Eq. (46). Since the above identification process of material constitutive formalism is aimed at the fit to local experimental data but not all ones, the final objective is to find a set of material parameters arrived at using multi-objective inverse identification strategy by fitting the identified constitutive model well to all the experimental data.

The quantitative identification results of fit upon R2⁠ , average absolute relative error and asymptotic fit standard error are found to be 99.62%, 2.34%, and 8.9138 MPa, respectively. The material parameter of the identified constitutive model above for Al6061/SiCp⁠ /15 composites are presented in Table 5. The experimental flow stress-plastic strain curves in both quasi-static and dynamic loading modes are illustrated in Fig. 8, together with the corresponding simulations using the identified constitutive model. A good fit indicates that the proposed dependence-based integrated constitutive modelling methodology, together with multi-objective parameter identification strategy may provide a new methodology in characterizing material behaviors in quasi-static and dynamic modes equally well.

those at other temperatures. This special phenomenon may be due to the increase in the diffusion rate in this temperature range from 100 °C to 400 °C that make the diffusion become active. In order to reduce the temperature dependencies in mechanical characterization of strain-rate sensitivity behavior, the variation of flow stress at very small plastic strain of 0%, 0.2%, 0.5% and 1% with strain rate under reference temperature 25 °C are employed for identifying isolated strain-rate sensitivity function through multi-objective fit strategy. Fig. 7(c) illustrates the experimental data and multi-objective fit curves in dynamic loading modes. When the Cowper-Symonds rate-dependent function in Table 2 is applied in Eq. (44), it yields a better fit quality of R2⁠ = 94.0%, AARE= 2.52%, and AFSE = 7.74 MPa, over other strain-rate sensitivity ones. Fig. 7(c) shows the experimental and multi-objective fit curves at small plastic strains in dynamic loading modes.

5. Conclusions

The phenomenological model is widely used for the characterization of plastic behavior of metals and alloys during forming and manufacturing. But the applications of phenomenological constitutive model in industrial simulation are often faced with some major difficulties such as the requirement of a larger number of mechanical tests over a wide loading range by the classical parameter identification strategy, determination of coupled relations among explanatory variables, and the ensuing hard identification job of material parameters involved in constitutive characterization. This paper suggests an improved methodology for dependence-based integrated development of constitutive model, together with multi-objective identification scheme of material parameters with the equal capability of predicting material behaviors in quasi-static and dynamic modes well. The automatic assignment of three weighting factors considering (a) different measure errors or individual fit standard errors in individual objective function corresponding to each test, (b) the number of experimental points and number of active material parameters under different loading conditions, and (c) assignment of equal optimization opportunity for quasi-static and dynamic sub-objective functions, is introduced in the formulation of multi-objective identification model to arrive at a more accurate, reliable, and generalized set of material parameters over the entire span of

(44)

As can be seen from the overestimated flow stress in Fig. 7(c) and a not-too-high R2⁠ value, the effect of temperature dependency is to be incorporated into strain-rate sensitivity function to arrive at a high degree of fit. Hence the ensuing identification task is to find the suitable strain-rate sensitivity function with temperature dependencies for capturing general tendency of strain rate-dependence. Multiple dynamic curves of varying flow stress at higher plastic strain values of 10%, 15%, and 20% with strain-rate at forming temperatures of 25 °C, 100 °C and 200 °C are employed to identify specific coupled relation of strain rate hardening with temperature using multi-

The performance of this dependence-based integrated constitutive modelling methodology and multi-objective parameter identification strategy is verified by illustrating the multi-objective fit to the experimental data of Al6061/SiCp⁠ /15 composites from quasi-static Gleeble and dynamic SHPB tests with the instantaneous strain rates variation and corrected plastic strain-related forming temperatures changes, where the classical parameter identification strategy cannot work. A good fit shows the feasibility of the proposed dependence-based integrated constitutive methodology and the qualification of weighted multi-objective identification strategy in characterizing overall material behaviors in both quasi-static and dynamic modes.

Though the influence of the variation of strain rate on most engineering materials in quasi-static test is not considerably significant, it is of significant importance to incorporate strain rate effect into a correct determination of constitutive parameters in quasi-static mode. Hence under kinematic conditions of large displacements and large strains, the true strain rate for the ith experimental data point can be corrected from Eq. (A1). (A1)

where di is the displacement for the ith experimental data point. But

if so, the classical identification strategy cannot be used in parameter identification of strain hardening function. In the classical identification strategy, only a constant (average) nominal strain rate, instead of practical strain rate corresponding to each data point in dynamic test, is employed during parameter identification process. To improve the fit precision of constitutive model, instantaneous strain rates in dynamic tests are chosen for optimization. In this case, the conventional nonlinear regression approach is limited due to nonconstant strain rate. An alternative quasi-static test without any correction is Gleeble thermomechanical testing, where the instantaneous strain rate can be kept nearly constant. It is worth noting that in isothermal uniaxial test when strain rate ⁠ 3 s− ⁠ 1, the heat generated by plastic deformation are dissipated < 10− timely due to sufficient deformation time, so the test at strain rate of ⁠ 3 s− ⁠ 1 can be taken as isothermal deformation. When strain less than 10− ⁠ 3 s− ⁠ 1, thermal-softening effect during deformation is rate exceeds 10− so considerable that non-isothermal deformation with temperature correction should be taken into account [70]. As the strain rate increases ⁠ 1, the plastic work during deformation results in conversion of a to 1 s− considerable fraction of plastic strain energy into adiabatic heat in localized regime. The quantitative relation between plastic work ∆W and converted heat including dissipated heat can be given based on the first law of thermodynamics, as follows. (A2)

density and specific heat, Δεp plastic strain during deformation. η is the

Taylor–Quinney coefficient that stands for the fraction of conversion of mechanical work into heat, typically assumed to be 0.9–0.95, whereas the remaining fraction used for microstructure change (grain evolution, dynamic recrystallization, phase transformation, etc.). The adiabatic correction factor α, represents the fraction of adiabatic heat remaining in test specimen due to heat dissipation into die and environment. In terms of strain rate range, the adiabatic correction factor varying with strain rate is defined as [70]
