Transformation Plasticity and the Effect on Quenching Process Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mechanism of transformation plasticity (TP) is discussed from continuum mechanics viewpoint, and derivation of TP law from the unified thermo-mechanical and transformation plasticity constitutive equation. Result of identified TP coefficient for a chromium steel (JIS SCr420) by use of multi-functional testing machine is introduced as one of the material data together with other data to the simulation of a quenching process by use of newly developed code COSMAP. The simulated distribution of temperature, phases and stress/distortion are compared with the experimentally measured values to verify the accuracy.
