Effective medium polycrystal models provide a computationally efficient tool for simulations of elastic and visco-plastic deformation of aggregates. In particular, visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) schemes have been widely and successfully applied to predictions of texture, stress-strain, and dislocation density evolution during large strain deformation. In addition, VPSC schemes have been implemented in finite element codes as material subroutines to simulate various metal forming operations. However, a limitation of VPSC models is that they only address deviatoric stress and strain and neglect elastic contributions. As a consequence, they cannot be used to predict internal Cauchy stress evolution (as measured with neutron or X-ray diffraction), or to study constitutive behavior during complex loading scenarios (such as Bauschinger or spring-back) where the contribution of elasticity needs to be accounted for.
Several formulations have been proposed in the last 20 years that empirically combine visco-plastic and elastic regimes to formulate elasto-visco-plastic (E-VPSC) effective medium models. A disadvantage of these formulations is that they increase considerably the computation time, which makes them unwieldy for using in forming simulations.
Here we present a new approximate E-VPSC formulation that, by treating elasticity as a perturbation to the VPSC scheme of Lebensohn and Tomé [1], seems to capture the best of both worlds: efficient numerical processing while providing access to the evolution of Cauchy stress in the grains.
In this presentation we describe such E-VPSC formulation, compare it to previous ones, and provide a simple application - based on Voce hardening - to predictions of stress strain and internal stress evolution in steel subjected to tension-compression reversal tests. In a companion paper [2] we present several applications of this new E-VPSC formulation.
