Abstract:

In this research X65 steel is chosen as the test material, and tension test and three-point bending test of X65 are made, then we got the load - displacement curve and the resistance curve. Using the finite element method to derive load - displacement curves of tension test based on the micro-plastic damage model, and the parameters controlling ductile crack growth are gotten by compared with the test results. We obtained the resistance curve of numerical calculation by WARP3D based on the parameters, which in good agreement with the experimental results. The results indicate that the three-point bending fracture toughness can be predicted by tension test based on micro-plastic damage mechanism.
