Evaluation of Strain Rate Effects on Transition Behaviour Applying the Master Curve Methodology
Dlouhý, Ivo ; Kohout, J. ; Jurášek, Ladislav ; Holzmann, Miloslav
Master curve methodology has been used for an evaluation of strain rate effects on transition behaviour of wrought CrMo and cast ferritic C Mn steel.The physical aspects of strain rate effect on reference temperature has been analysed as a base for the prediction of this dependence.Statistical aspects of the strain rate effects on the master curve have been discussed showing capability of the method for the prediction of strain rate susceptibility of steel fracture behaviour. It has been experimentally proved that the master curve shape does not depend on the loading rate.The relationship between reference temperature T0 (or the shift of T0 with respect to quasi-static loading rate)and loading rate can be described with linear dependence if logarithmic scale of temporal change of stress intensity factor is considered.For experimental establishing of the dependence of reference temperature on loading rates only two T0 values as determined at different loading rates are sufficient.However,it is useful to achieve the comparable accuracy of both T0 determinations that may demand larger number of specimens for the measurement of T0 at the higher loading rate.Standard quasistatic fracture toughness has been predicted from small pre-cracked Charpy type specimens tested dynamically applying the reference temperature shift obtained experimentally.The predicted fracture toughness temperature diagram has been proved experimentally.
