Abstract

High-temperature components, for example turbochargers, are often subject to complex thermal and mechanical loading paths. Non-uniform temperature distribution and constraints by neighboring components result in complex timely varying stress and strain states during operation. The aim of this paper is to analyze inelastic behavior of a casting material Ni-resist D-5S in a wide stress, strain rate and temperature ranges. The material model including a constitutive equation for the inelastic strain rate tensor and a non-linear kinematic hardening rule is discussed. To calibrate the model, experimental databases from creep and low cycle fatigue tests are generated. They include creep curves for temperatures within the range 600–800 °C and stress levels from 10 to 150 MPa. The low cycle fatigue data collect a family of hysteresis loops for the strain rate of 10⁻³ 1/s, the strain amplitude from 0.4% to 2% and temperature levels within the range 200–800 °C. For the verification of the model, simulations of the material behavior under uniaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue loading conditions are performed. The results for the stress response are compared with experimental data.
