Abstract
Hydrogen-induced-cracking initiates without external loading due to residual stresses. Pipe manufacturing process composed of crimping, -ing, -ing, and expansion has a major impact on local hydrogen concentration, as strain pattern evolves from one forming step to another, causing residual stresses that serve as driving force for hydrogen diffusion. The novelty of the presented work lies in the development of a multi-scale approach that links the residual stresses from the macroscopic pipe-forming process with locally dissolved hydrogen atoms in microstructure under the consideration of microstructural heterogeneities to identify areas susceptible to hydrogen-induced-cracking. First, a 3d-pipe-forming-model was built. Second, representative volume elements with lattice defects were generated to analyze hydrogen trapping in microstructure. Third, representative volume elements were placed in the pipe via sub-modeling, so that local loading history of the pipe was assigned to microstructure models. At the end of the pipe-forming process, representative volume elements were loaded with hydrogen on the surface and final hydrogen concentration was simulated based on residual stresses, considering microstructural effects such as grain size/shape, crystallographic texture and hydrogen traps, e.g. dislocations, voids and inclusions. On meso-/macroscale, a combined isotropic–kinematic hardening material model was implemented, while on microscale, a phenomenological crystal-plasticity-hydrogen-diffusion model was coded. According to the multi-scale simulations under the consideration of microstructural effects the bottom center position in the pipe was detected to be critical to hydrogen-induced-cracking as the maximum local hydrogen concentration was predicted at that location. Based on the loading history hydrogen-induced-cracking susceptibility increases from voids to hard and soft non-metallic inclusions.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Mechanical Sciences (IJMS) serves as a global platform for the publication and dissemination of original research that contributes to a deeper scientific understanding of the fundamental disciplines within mechanical, civil, and material engineering.
The primary focus of IJMS is to showcase innovative and ground-breaking work that utilizes analytical and computational modeling techniques, such as Finite Element Method (FEM), Boundary Element Method (BEM), and mesh-free methods, among others. These modeling methods are applied to diverse fields including rigid-body mechanics (e.g., dynamics, vibration, stability), structural mechanics, metal forming, advanced materials (e.g., metals, composites, cellular, smart) behavior and applications, impact mechanics, strain localization, and other nonlinear effects (e.g., large deflections, plasticity, fracture).
Additionally, IJMS covers the realms of fluid mechanics (both external and internal flows), tribology, thermodynamics, and materials processing. These subjects collectively form the core of the journal's content.
In summary, IJMS provides a prestigious platform for researchers to present their original contributions, shedding light on analytical and computational modeling methods in various areas of mechanical engineering, as well as exploring the behavior and application of advanced materials, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and materials processing.
