The Third-Type Of Strain Aging And The Constitutive Modeling Of A Q235b Steel Over A Wide Range Of Temperatures And Strain Rates, Jianjun Wan, Wei-Guo Guo, Xiaosheng Gao, Jing Su

Dr. Xiaosheng Gao

In this study, uniaxial compression experiments of a Q235B steel are conducted over the temperature range of 93–1173 K and the strain rate range of 0.001–7000 s−1. Through the mechanism analysis, an argument is made that the third-type of strain aging (the 3rd SA) effect, the Portevin–Le Chatelier (PLC) effect and the blue brittleness are different manifestations of the dynamic strain aging. Based on the experiment results, the characteristics of the 3rd SA effect are analyzed and a constitutive model is developed to describe the plastic behavior of the Q235B steel. The model accounts for the 3rd SA effect and …
