Abstract

This research aims to simulate rate-dependent cyclic behavior of cold worked AISI 316L stainless steel pipe member using a developed FE analysis program. A rate-dependent cyclic plasticity model for cold worked AISI 316L stainless steel is derived based on the monotonic and cyclic loading experiments within quasi-static and dynamic strain rate ranges. Validity of the FE simulation program is presented by comparing analytical results to experimental data. Cyclic behavior of cold worked AISI 316L stainless steel pipe member is clearly simulated as a function of loading rate.

► The monotonic and cyclic experiments of AISI 316 Stainless Steel are performed. ► A rate-dependent behavior of 316L stainless steel is characterized by the experiments. ► A rate dependent cyclic plasticity model of 316L stainless steel is formulated. ► The model is incorporated into FE simulation program and verified its validity. ► Loading rate-dependent cyclic behavior of AISI 316L stainless steel pipe is simulated.
